"linux" (as in 'kernel') does not provide anything related to that.
concerning "linux" (as in 'distribution') i can only speak for one:
Debian explicitely does *not* support downgrading. my experience with
ubuntu is small, but i gather that it doesn't even properly support
upgrading.
Debian didn't support downgrade, but they provide way's to do it. (dpkg)
Running sid, makes it necessary from time to time to downgrade some
apps/libs.
tablets are a different ecosystem, we should ignore it here.
different to what?
a considerable amount of computers sold are "tablets" there days.
a considerable amount of tablets are running "linux" these days.
as a matter of fact, i think this entire discussion makes *most* sense
in "tablet world".

similar projects exist for some time now, and may be go to some nice
result, when driven carefully. Ignoring "corner-case user" is surly not
the way to go , see here:
