Yes. However, the number of incompatible changes could be reduced
even more by out-of-kernel-tree stuff never accessing sysfs directly,
but always through the kernel-lib. If such an application want
something that is available through sysfs, but not the kernel-lib,
then one could add an appropriate ABI to the kernel-lib, and that ABI
is probably easier to keep stable than sysfs.
