+1 Not doing so is leading to confusing/broken behavior during
upgrades. By deferring the application of the sysctl settings until
reboot, we're effectively leaving the system in a half-upgraded state
where applications that depend on sysctls set here will misbehave for
confusing reasons until a reboot happens.
See https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1085289 and
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1084135 for instances
of issues caused during upgrades.
