Which would be quite a waste of resources.
Fully agreed.
After grepping the kernel sources, I'm not sure if the extract-certs tool is actually used for building external modules (which is what kernel-devel packages are mostly used for AFAICT).
So the simplest solution might be to just "rm scripts/extract-certs" in %install.
I must admit I'm not really sure what (and who) exactly is the utility useful for so that I can't say if someone is going to miss it. But I do agree that it's most likely not needed to build out of tree modules which is the main purpose of kernel-${flavor}-devel packages. Also, it doesn't seem to depend on flavor so there is little reason for it to be in each kernel-${flavor}-devel; on the other hand, kernel-devel is noarch so it shouldn't go there either.
If that is deemed overly radical, we could split kernel-devel into two packages: kernel-devel and kernel-devel-extractcert.
People on pre-openSSL-1.1 systems could still install everything but the extractcert package. And I'd guess nobody would notice ;-)
