Dear Maintainer,
AFAICT, there's no downside to this, and running into this each time
I want to kexec (and, presumably, a significant chunk of the population,
since lockdown is quite popular), then going to the manual, then finding
out I want the /auto/ flag(!!!) is quite annoying:

I'm attaching a patch I've validated works as expected.

Closes: 1028416 1030248 1032000 1034616 1039248 1051962
Changes:
kexec-tools (1:2.0.27-1) unstable; urgency=medium
.
* New upstream release (Closes: #1051962)
* Updated turkish translation (Closes: #1034616)
* Added romanian translation (Closes: #1032000)
* Make "kexec -a" the default. This fix was pulled into upstream
2.0.26 release (Closes: #1030248)
* Removed trailing whitespaves from rules and changelog files
* Updated version for watch file and replaced http with https
* Updated control file, cleaned up rules file, made copyright file
dep5 compliant
* Removed init files. Removed automatic kexec reboot when enabled
and associated config option (kexec-tools/load_kexec or
LOAD_KEXEC in /etc/default/kexec). kexec reboot functionality
has been integrated into systemctl now and will likely move to
logind in near future. (Closes: #1039248)
* Package now provides a script - kexec-load-kernel. To perform a
kexec reboot, ensure /etc/default/kexec has the desired value for
USE_GRUB_CONFIG. Use the sequence "kexec-load-kernel;
systemctl kexec" or "kexec-load-kernel; reboot"
(Closes: #1028416)
