Seems like it is not possible to install upstream kernel since it is not available. What versions are you refereeing to, when saying upstream? 5.2.1 and 5.1.18 are compiled with errors and here is no corresponding deb files for download (only arm version available).
* https://kernel.ubuntu.com/~kernel-ppa/mainline/?C=N;O=D Please be more specific what version should I use when you referring to latest mainline kernel. Should I use 4.x version?
