kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/ is not a normal PPA, so you cannot add
it to /etc/apt/sources or sources.d. You have to install them
manually, but since the kernels install in parallel with the other
kernels you have, there is not really any maintenance headache. See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/MainlineBuilds .
