Nothing gets 'pushed' to Testing. Packages *transition* to Testing when
several conditions are met. https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/linux shows several
reasons why 6.7.9-2 hasn't transitioned to Testing yet.

But that kernel is already EOL so that brings nothing and nobody will test 6.6 line before the next stable.

The 6.6 kernel is not relevant for Debian (Testing). Generally, upstream LTS
kernels are relevant for Debian around the freeze for the next Stable version.

The current Debian Stable (Bookworm) will stay on 6.1.

Too bad. So I will disregards Debian kernel as I did for years.

At least it is clear.
