Ah, I see what you mean now. There appears to be a bug in 
lib.bb.data.expandKeys(), where variables name are expanded 
alphabetically instead of definition order. Filed bug 
https://bugzilla.yoctoproject.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11905 for the issue; 
see example.

Unfortunately, I've not been able to workaround it yet. Adding a warning 
when `KERNEL_PACKAGE_NAME == PN` until bug # 11905 is resolved.

Posting a PATCH v5 shortly.

I built linux-yocto-tiny version 4.9 and linux-yocto version 4.10 in 
parallel in the aforementioned test procedure. I'm not sure what you 
mean by "old kernel/userspace -> new kernel, but not from a
 > new kernel/userspace -> old kernel". Can you send me your build 
procedure -- I.e. sequence of bitbake commands?
