Judging by the git log[1] and `eshowkw sys-kernel/gentoo-sources`[2], it
looks like it was part of a cleanup, a lot of old kernels were dropped.
5.15.59 presumably wasn't dropped because it's the latest stable on
hppa. I guess the other arches were unkeyworded to keep the list of
supported kernels somewhat reasonable.
