Comment(by geofft):
 The right way to address this is probably to have auto-upgrade run only
 kexec -l and then run reboot and have the kexec's package reboot hook (to
 reboot via kexec if there's a loaded kernel) take care of running kexec -e
 for you. This is what we do in reactivate, where we use kexec to speed up
 reboots, and it seems to work fine.
