Or if one is using a distribution with rolling-releases, or just one that puts kernel updates into its repositories.

  It sounds like you're using a distro that does just this, but is too modest to go name-dropping. May I ask what distro(s) you had in mind?

    I seem to get kernel updates using Debian Unstable (I don't pay much attention; but my current kernel is 3.13 and I installed my current OS years ago) and I think Arch does too. I'm sure there's others.

    Gentoo, Arch at least (and related distros). I also believe Fedora does that.

    Suse tumbleweed, the Kernel Developers PPA, Debian Experimental / Unstable, Arch, Fedora Rawhide, and Gentoo all deliver new kernels usually within a month of release, most within days (albeit more buggy).
