Ubuntu does not provide processor specific kernels. If you are running a 64 bit version of Ubuntu then you are already running a kernel that will use the AMD K7 capabilities.

If you want a kernel compiled to match your specific processor then you will have to compile your own kernel. But it's almost certainly not worth your while - the link has reasons for and against if you want to know more.
