I once upgraded my system on Arch and it updated the kernel...and deleted the running kernel and its modules. Which was annoying when I had a video conference, and I plugged in my webcam for which the module had been removed.

(I used Arch btw. But I run Debian now.)

In fairness to arch, they do tell you on the wiki that kernel updates do that and you should restart
