Do a google search for linux two kernel monte

Basically, you launch a new kernel and then the process swaps out the
calls on the fly to the new on and when fished, it stop the old kernel,
migrates the new kernel to the old kernel memory space.

It still requires dropping to a non-multi-user mode but it doesn't wipe
out the uptime.
