I suppose so, but "upstream" in this case is a hardware vendor, who is much less motivated to keep supporting a 10-year-old card than they are to sell new hardware. The last update to the module source was around March of 2016. Unfortunately telephony cards in general are way overpriced for what they do. Maybe patents involved? But this was a $600 PCI card ten years ago, I can't afford to just junk it now. If it weren't so expensive to replace, I wouldn't even think of trying to keep running hardware this old.
I've seen similar cards for significantly less than that. And depending on what you're trying to do, there are other options as well. If you're interested, email me directly to take it off the list.
A Fedora-related question is wondering whether I can upgrade to F25 and still keep running an F24 kernel.
I would expect things would keep working. Just be careful that the kernel you want doesn't get removed during an update. The easiest method would be to keep the latest kernel and the kernel you want. Any other kernel packages will need to be removed before doing any updates.
