As far as I can determine, it is a reinstall of the OpenElec.
Is it better to use the OpenElec upgrade function from within Openelec/Kodi or should you do a clean and install the dual boot utilizing the latest (if and when available).
The fact that you are dual booting doesn't matter one bit, you do a manual upgrade as per the OpenELEC wiki, same as on any other x86 system. Download the .tar update file, copy into the upgrade folder via SMB, then reboot.
That is what I thought and did. I also tested the Openelec update option from within Kodi and it also worked on the update from .5.95.2 to 5.95.3.
Fun to learn and experiment ...
