Why won't you use https://github.com/liske/needrestart to automatically restart services that need restarting after security upgrades and unattendedupgrades or a cron job for rebooting the whole machine after kernel upgrades/periodically?

Shouldn't ansible do all this for you? I heard it's the recommended way for automatic updates and service restarts.

Please let me know about this as I'm interested myself.
