Hmmm... Won't 4.15 become an LTS release if Canonical is supporting it? It would be odd if they didn't make all of their 4.15 work available in the standard linux-stable git repo.
But then again, this is Canonical, so not that odd. However, here's to hoping.

In any case, It will need to get GHK's approval to appear here https://www.kernel.org/category/releases.html

With the feature freeze coming in just a week or so then this makes sense. Though it's too bad if they're going for a non-LTS kernel then 4.16 would be better. There just isn't time.
Anyway, the mainline kernel deb's can be used if you want a newer kernel. I'm running kernel 4.15.4 on Ubuntu 16.04 right now.

Still, I hope maybe the devs will manage to release with 4.16. I'm looking forward to local Intel vGPU display support in 4.16. But being forgetful (and lazy), I want to receive automatic updates, and so would prefer not to deal with mainline.
