I would have thought that Debian has made kernel testing just about as
easy as they can since:
jessie  installs with 3.16 but 4.9  is also available,
stretch installs with 4.9  but 4.19 is also available,
buster  installs with 4.19
so there's full overlap. (I've not looked at backports.)


That's actually what I also thought about.

Btw, when you say 'installs', do you mean a fresh installation only, or it includes a 'forced' kernel update during a distribution upgrade? My old box was installed for the first time in squeeze, then upgraded to wheezy, then to jessie.
