'rpi-update' should only be used if there is a specific
reason to do so - for example, a request by a Raspberry Pi
engineer or if you want to help the testing effort
and are comfortable with restoring if there are regressions.
DO NOT use 'rpi-update' as part of a regular update process.

This is on a Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W Rev 1.0 originally running the 2023-05-03 Raspi release with rpi-update ver. 20210618 on a machine with all updates installed with apt-get.
I should note that despite the command exiting with a status code 1, rebooting the device did, indeed, successfully boot into a newer kernel.
