@Tim -- Its not obvious whether the warn_reboot is mean to actually
control whether you are recommended to reboot.  The comment on the
variable in those scripts says its whether you wanted to be warned
specifically about installing the same version of the kernel.  ie. if
you have just lost the modules which match the kernel you are running.
Now admittedly we do not use that variable anywhere.  Indeed looking
back we cirtainly have not used it since at least gutsy.

Any time we install a kernel we want to be recommending people to
update.  We gave them a new kernel for a reason, its not clear one would
want to be told not to.  Also when you have just lost your modules you
would definatly want to be told, and there does not seem to be support
for that.
