The update will make it's way into the normal updates, though this may
take some time (3-6 weeks typically) due to the amount of testing we
need to do on kernel updates. It won't be in the next update as that one
is already undergoing testing; it will be in the update after that.

The only reason you would need to install anything manually is if you
want to use the test build while waiting for the fix to make it's way
into a release kernel update.
