This is fixed in my local tree. It will automatically transition to linux-image-generic

@Tim: I fixed it in "update-manager" so that it has a special upgrade rule for people with the low-latency kernel (that needs to be released noted as well). If you want to add a transitional package in the kernel itself that is of course fine with me. I removed myself from the assignies for this.

Cheers,
