You can create /etc/udev/kernel-upgrade (and no, I will not document it).
I will be happy to accept patches to support preseeding as well.

All these preinst checks must be skipped when upgrading a chroot, and
indeed they are as long as you do not have the external /dev mounted
inside it. I added an explicit check.
OTOH, this way you will easily be able to upgrade udev on a chrooted
system without an acceptable kernel, but I see no good solution to this
problem.
