The PTS and PTY systems aren't related to AX.25 so they will continue to
work.  Ax25ipd and all other ax25, netrom, rose, and all other
associated libraries, applications, and tools using those protocols will
stop working.  Failures have already started happening for some
use-cases already and that's why people are recommending to revert to
old kernels that don't have the breakage.  That helps ax25/netrom/rose
needs but you loose all other bug fixes, security fixes, new hardware
support, etc.

 David, a question. What happens to things like pseudo tty and ax25ipd
 if ax25 is removed from the kernel?

  Just an observation: It is possible to recompile
just a kernel module.
 Get the kernel source, extract the module, patch, compile and load.
 If it works, replace the default one with it.
 Not for the faint hearted, but it is an option.
