Yeah, sorry. I got you wrong regarding the VM flush, I thought you were talking about the backend side. Indeed, we presently don't quiesce Linux guests.
How's this behaviour different from a sudden physical power-cycle?
A look at /usr/sbin/update-grub shows it atomically moves in the new grub.conf; presumably the yum packages are also careful about not leaving a machine without a bootable kernel at any point during an upgrade...
