On Jun 17 at 06:31 devmon stops for the first time and after that every one or two days. Even after rebooting the machine. Meanwhile I created a script in cron.hourly that restarts devmon every hour. But I wonder why this happened immediately after the update.

Used to happen to me also. I think I ended up having a cron job test, kill and restart. But that was a long time ago, and it hasn't been a problem for a while. Sorry I can't help other than to confirm it's not just you, and also happens with older kernels.
It might not be the kernel that did it. You'll have rebooted to get the new kernel running, so it could have been caused by any other effect of rebooting. For instance, the fault might have been triggered by simply stopping and starting devmon. If you're at liberty to boot back to the previous kernel, you might find it still has problems.
