When you unlock your bootloader you will be able to flash custom kernels but you will void your warranty..

Yes there are a couple. Search and you will find them. Bin4ry's method and a prerooted CWM flashable rom are two of the ways to do it with locked bootloader.

No you can always flash back to stock wiping away root.

If yes, is there any difference between locked and unlocked bootloader?

Should I update to 15.1.c.2.8 !!?

I have rooted n unlocked bootloader on XM 1904..
I hv flashed 15.1.c.1.17 ftf I want to upgrade to latest version..
Is there any chances to brick the device?
If you do it carefully there are no chances of brick,
Best way is, go to Sony update service and say repair, it all update to latest FW.
Sent from my C1904 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
DO NOT USE SONY UPDATE SERVICE OR PCC this will brick your device hard as you have unlocked bootloader and Sony state this in their website you will have to download the ftf from this forum and flash it via flashtools
