I'm fine with knowing that the 3.16 kernel is getting security updates 
and will probably keep using it, but I checked the server and found:

linux-image-4.9-amd64/oldstable 4.9+80+deb9u6~deb8u1 amd64

This kernel is newer than what I have on Stretch at home, but I don't 
update very often.  So it looks like the "Debian LTS team" is doing a 
good job providing Jessie with security updates.

Thanks again,
