Not all package updates require a reboot. You can make this more robust by installing yum-utils, run /sbin/needs-restarting, and decide based on what that returns. Example: https://luktom.net/en/e1497-how-to-update-centos-rhel-using-ansible
On Debian based distros you’d check for the presence of /var/run/reboot-required.
