the kernel postinst exists because it can happen that the nvidia-common postinst is triggered before the installation of the new (or updated) modalias files takes place thus preventing nvidia-common from helping users with the transition to a new driver.

The kernel postinst gives nvidia-common a better chance to do its job by making sure that the postinst is triggered sooner or later during the upgrade.
