linux_6_15: remove

Browse Source 
EOL upstream.

We only have one hardened kernel at the moment now because
LTS == latest available. This situation would've also happened before
the cleanup since 6.13/6.14 were removed in June already[1].

@@ -24,6 +24,12 @@ abandoned by the kernel developers, even on stable NixOS versions. If you
pin your kernel onto a non-longterm version, expect your evaluation to fail as
soon as the version is out of maintenance.
A kernel will be removed from nixpkgs when the first batch of stable kernels
_after_ the final release is published. E.g. when 6.15.11 is the final release
of the 6.15 series and is released together with 6.16.3 and 6.12.43, it will be
removed on the release of 6.16.4 and 6.12.44. Custom kernel variants such
as linux-hardened are also affected by this.
Longterm versions of kernels will be removed before the next stable NixOS that will
exceed the maintenance period of the kernel version.
