Do you know if it is planned Ubuntu 22.04 to receive kernel 5.16 officially and when ? I cannot disable secure boot so I cannot install unsigned 5.16 kernel. Regards.

Kernel 5.16 won't be in 22.04.

Kernel 5.19 will be in Ubuntu 22.04.2, around January 2023.

There will no intermediate steps between 5.15 (=Ubuntu 22.04) and 5.19 (=Ubuntu 22.10). No 5.16, 5.17, nor 5.18.

To use this newer kernel when released, install the HWE metapackage: What is hardware enablement (HWE)?

HWE upgrade occurs in January/July, approximately three months after the Interim Releases in April/October. You can easily identify the new HWE kernel by simply looking at the most recent Interim Release kernel.
