This patch tries to help the users how to know if they need to reboot or not after an update of the system with the freebsd-update utility.
If you check the updating section in our Handbook freebsd-update you can see that says:
"If the update applies any kernel patches, the system will need a reboot in order to boot into the patched kernel."
With this patch I tried to solve this question.
@emaste you know if that note it's enought? I don't know if there's another easy way to check that.
