Help with installing AppArmor

Hello
I already have three Arch Installations, two of them on pendrives. One of them is with encryption.

I discovered AppArmor and now I would like to try this out on pendrive installation first and then implement it on my hard disk installation. ArchWiki has decent inputs including tips. My queries below -

1) AppArmor needs me to modify the kernel? Which means I will have a custom kernel on my installation? Consider me a rank noob on modifying a kernel. Need inputs in the right direction how to go about it without screwing up my installation

2) Wikipage also suggests that each time a kernel updates, I am required to update/modify steps in the above query. What changes do I need to implement? Any pointers in this direction welcome

Thank you for sparing your time

Best wishes

Virendra

AppArmor needs me to modify the kernel?

No. Patches used to be needed. But not anymore, happily, e.g. kernel 4.9.44 doesn't need patches for apparmor.
