You are right, this is just harmless. For device protocol it is really
nothing (as device protocol is pseudoprotocol which does not generate
any routes). For kernel protocol, reload might have a sense (you could
change import filter and then use 'configure soft'), but is not
implemented (and not really important, because there are periodic
scans that works in a similar manner).
