      Description of problem:

      In our docs, e.g. : https://docs.openshift.com/container-platform/4.14/security/certificate_types_descriptions/proxy-certificates.html#customization
      
      We have references to the user-CA, which is laid down by the MCO, and previously caused a reboot to apply.
      
      The MCO now considers it under the "disruptionless update" case, similar to sshkey or container registry cases. It will now instead run update-ca-trust and restart the crio service. The most a user will see is a temporary "NotReady" for the node (and an updating pool status) for a few seconds before everything goes back to normal.
      
      Confusingly, we actually shipped it in 4.14 as a completely non-machineconfig update case (similar to kubelet CA) but it was changed in https://github.com/openshift/machine-config-operator/pull/4063 to be a "MachineConfig, but disruptionless update".
      
      Unlike kubelet CA, this will 
      

      not

       apply to paused pools. Kubelet CA is disruptionless and uses a new format, 
      
      The docs should be updated to call out this new behaviour.
