Imagine two regular updates.

First you update mariadb-server package. %post is smart and it will condrestart the mariadb service. However...

Next day you update "pam" package which provides /usr/lib64/libpam.so.0 which is used by mariadb service.
Unless you restart your computer your mariadb server will continue to use old (and maybe insecure) libpam.so.
Or unless you use dnf-plugins-extras-tracer:
