I just did an "apt update && apt upgrade" on a KVM guest with Ubuntu 20.04 that 
I had previously used installkernel on with an early version of your updated 
script:

Setting up linux-image-5.4.0-73-generic (5.4.0-73.82) ...

Processing triggers for linux-image-5.4.0-73-generic (5.4.0-73.82) ...
/etc/kernel/postinst.d/initramfs-tools:

/etc/kernel/postinst.d/zz-zipl:
Not invoking zipl: initrd doesn't exist yet <--- but above it said it generated 
?it!?

So usually I would expect that upgrading the kernel after having used
installkernel will afterwards use the new distro kernel. Am I correct in
that assumption? It might also be that this system is somehow in a weird
state but would like confirmation either way.
