If you end up without network, check /sys/class/net/ if the device name has changed and change it accordingly in /etc/network/interfaces .... as you run a server this should be peanuts for you.
In my case after upgrading to this kernel my network device changed name from p1p1 to eth0. So probably best thing to do before reboot is to add additional lines to /etc/network/interfaces. And as nothing is wrong with multiple configurations best is to have options for both names. In my configuration it looks like this in /etc/network/interfaces:
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
auto p1p1
iface p1p1 inet dhcp
auto eth0
iface eth0 inet dhcp
