Sudo apt-get update
Sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

This does not install for me anything more recent than 3.11.0-031100,
which I had already installed as part of the earlier testing.

I had been bisecting the *mainline* kernel following
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Kernel/KernelBisection. That gives no
instructions for any sort of a wrap-up after finding the first bad
commit. But from other reading I have some recollection of using 'git
bisect reset' after such a process to return to another branch. Is that
what I need to do?

Or is there another way to install 3.11.0-7.14?
