    It is not a "fresh" kernel. It is just a minor update within the
    "old" 6.15.y series.

    A "new" or "fresh" kernel is indicated by an increment of the major
    number X: 6.X.0, i.e. the next "new" kernel will be 6.16.0.

    Note that the intial number "6" has no significance. It is incremented whenever Torvalds runs out of fingers, toes, and other appendages with
    which to count the major releases.
