Well, yes, Linux as a project goes through numbered releases, so
releases are the usual official points we try to stop changing stuff,
so if we want to reset the expectation the committed CoC is final,
doing it before the release is helpful.

Not usually: people usually have to agree to a change like this. Of
course "agree" is a variable concept and can be as simple as not object
by a certain time or by using certain infrastructure.
