Isn't the easiest way to solve this to reconfigure the SSL cert update
process to reload dovecot only once a day? It isn't that an update to an
SSL cert should be imminent: normally you can take your time and plan
carefully. This situation seems to me something like using the default

dynamically rather than all at once.
Pure-FTPd implements a nice solution to this: a standalone service that fetches
TLS certificates & keys.
