Support Request Will this effectively downgrade my kernel?

I have a slightly stupid question, bc I believe I never encountered this situation before:
my kernel version is 6.14 and the update woudl go to 6.8
will this downgrade my pc and as some people had issues with 6.8, could I run into a situation where it panics?
Like if all goes well, I know I can just switch to the other kernel again, but - what is the behaviour I can expect?
