You can find information about the 'stable' flag in the dir spec:

Note that you do not need to 'restart' a tor instance in that case, a 'reload' would be enough
and does not reset the uptime.

I'd say you don't need to worry to much if your relay runs 
24/7 and you only restart it for kernel and tor version upgrades (and some other occasional reboots).
