They do kexec ? (And no, ksplice/kpatch, if they are using that is not booting a new kernel.) I would be kinda worried about long term system state in that case...

I'm confused by your question. Kexec is a reboot, at least as currently implemented, and that comment does not claim that it's "booting a new kernel".
