I was kind of hoping that this wouldn't be such a big deal in practice. As gcc11 was pushed so early, there were 3 different gcc builds in rawhide last week. This is fairly unusual, and certainly not something I would expect to see in stable Fedora. That said, we do not enable KABI and MODVERSIONS at all in Fedora, and as such, we generally expect any kmods to be rebuilt with kernel updates. I think we need to take a good look at how this works as things stabilize.
