It's also not a Linux kernel and not relevant to your sound HW. Just
some video support for ancient video hardware. I don't think Cirrus
Logic has done video HW since the 90s.

Just need to give -t repo option to apt:
apt install -t bullseye-backports linux-image-amd64
Although, I don't think you can install a new kernel in a live system
with apt. Don't know for sure though. That's why I said it'd be easy to
add to an installed system.
I don't know if enabling persistence with the live system would allow
booting with a new kernel, it's been a while since I last played with
anything live. But that too needs some figuring out as I recall.
So, install on a USB thing or resize the Windows partition in your
laptop and install in the newly freed space.
