Some services may be taken over from initrd. In this case initrd had been generated using old versions and they will continue to be used even if you update root to new version until next reboot. This may lead to rather hard to debug issues because everything after boot will indicate you have new versions installed.
Well, apply the update from init (systemd) then before it spawns anything else. init can reload itself.
And afterwards you have to reboot to activate the new kernel and initrd ...
