The warning is there because running update-grub (grub-mkconfig) just
overwrites your changes.
And often update-grub is called by the kernel image's prerm and postinst
scripts through /etc/kernel-img.conf and the grub-pc package itself runs
it.
So if you want to have your changes really permanent you have to edit
the files in /etc/grub.d/
