Hi Dan,
Thanks for your reply. We need few more information.
1. Debian 10 Buster is not released with Linux Kernel 5.10 ; That means We
cant upgrade Kernel 5.10 with Debian 10? - Please confirm.
2.
3. In order to upgrade Linux Kernel to 5.10 means we have to install Debian
11 BullsEye. Please Confirm.
4.
5. What will be the impact for upgrading Debian 10 with Kernel 4.19 to
Debian 11 with Kernel 5.10.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Bala

Buster was not released with a 5.10 kernel. A 5.10 kernel came
with Bullseye, Debian 11. Are you getting this from backports?
In general, Linus is pretty flexible about what kernels are
being used. The difference will be that the 5 series presumably
has fixed some old bugs, introduced some new bugs, and some
things will be faster or slower. Overall, more hardware is
supported, but if everything was working well with 4.19, then
there's no immediate reason to suspect it won't work with 5.10.
For more details, you're going to have to ask a more specific
question.
