Bug#655920: Rebooting by kexec leaves the old BOOT_IMAGE in /proc/cmdline

[Regid Ichira]

Package:  kexec-tools
Version:  1:2.0.2-3
Severity: normal

  I invoke freshly installed kernel images by rebooting with kexec.

    $ cat /proc/cmdline
    root=/dev/sda1 ro BOOT_IMAGE=/boot/vmlinuz-3.1.1-1.1

    $ uname -r
    3.1.8-2.1

    $ ls -l /vmlinuz
    lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 25 Jan 14 18:08 /vmlinuz -> boot/vmlinuz-3.1.8-2.1

  I think 3.1.1-1.1 got there a few weeks ago, when I actually
powered down the machine, and afterwards cold boot it.  It had that
kernel version back then.
  Is not updating /proc/cmdline expected?
