I'm afraid I'm not following you on this.

Upgrading your kernel from the production version to the development
version or the next production version is a big deal. It needs to be done
with trepidation and planning, or wait until a distribution packages it
and all the other changes your system will need up into a simpler install.
If you upgrade your kernel to the next major release without reading the
docs that come with it, you're pretty much asking for whatever trouble it
gives you.
