It's hard to say without full yum output, but I think no. 

rpmfusion just created their f15 branch and built the kmods for the
releases kernel, then a bit later they built an update for the updated
kernel you were running. I suspect you hit a mirror or checked before
they pushed that update and the kmod against the release version was
the only one available. So, not a yum bug, just a repo issue. 

If thats the case a 'yum clean expire-cache' and trying again should
work soon...
