I know I'm too late with this but I'll answer anyway in case it helps someone else ...
There isn't a simple yes/no answer.
- Some of the patches in the src .yaml files haven't needed to change for years, e.g. 'Custom footer (page number text)'
- Some must change for every firmware, e.g. 'Freedom to advanced fonts control'
- Others are somewhere in the middle. They can survive many firmware updates but then Kobo change something fundamental and the patch needs to be updated by the owner.
A rule-of-thumb is that if a patch's code in the .yaml contains a hex offset, e.g. {Offset: 0x87BD4A, ...} it's an example of type 2 above.
Best practice is
always to use the src .yaml patch files for the firmware version actually present on your Kobo.
