Using a gutsy kernel on feisty?

I'm having problems with smartmontools (and hddtemp, I think) because
of this bug

https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-source-2.6.20/+bug/106821

and am considering installing linux-image-2.6.22-6-generic from Gutsy
on my otherwise-Feisty system.


How risky is installing this package?

What would be the correct way to go about it, if I don't want anything
else from the Gusty repository --- just download the .dep and 
`dpkg --install`  it?

Thanks,
Adam
