I wasn't sure, but now I am :
from linux/fs/buffer.c
/*
 * This is the kernel update daemon. It was used to live in userspace
 * but since it's need to run safely we want it unkillable by mistake.
 * You don't need to change your userspace configuration since
 * the userspace `update` will do_exit(0) at the first sys_bdflush().
 */
int kupdate(void * unused) 
{
[...]
}

So remove calls to /sbin/update in your init scripts !
You will boot even faster ;)
