Currently running 5.11.22-2-MANJARO (linux511)
I tried to install linux515 but it fails with error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files) followed by a list of 3642 files – most if not all of the files in /usr/lib/firmware – and finally “Errors occurred, no packages were upgraded.”
The following kernels are installed:
The system is fully up to date via pacman -Syu before attempting the kernel upgrade. Do I have to uninstall 511 before I can instal 515?
Sure it is.
Reinstall your system, and next time read how to maintain it properly.
Sure… 
Reinstalling would be the easiest method to solve that problem for newbie.
Anyway all mentioned kernels are no longer part of the repo:
They are stable ones and go EOL (end of life) after about 3 months.
About the “conflicting files” issue. You need to overwrite them with the latest files:
sudo pacman-mirrors --geoip
sudo pacman-mirrors --fasttrack
sudo pacman -Syyuu --overwrite "*"
No, but if it is no longer available in the repo then it will be removed on an upgrade. So that a signal that you didn’t update for decades. Possibly an outdated mirror.
Also if you encounter the gpg verification problem, look here:
Thanks for your replies. I agree I have been negligent regarding the kernel, but for what it’s worth, after running
sudo pacman-mirrors --geoip
sudo pacman-mirrors --fasttrack
I see:
::INFO Mirror list generated and saved to: /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist
and then:
$ sudo pacman -Syyuu --overwrite "*"
:: Synchronizing package databases...$ sudo pacman -Syyuu --overwrite "*"

there is nothing to do
Also, I neglected to mention earlier that when I attempt to install the 515 kernel, before the list of conflicting files I see this:

error: failed to commit transaction (conflicting files)
so I don’t see anything that I recognize as a gpg problem, but then I also ran
sudo pacman-key --refresh-keys
sudo pacman-key --init
and then once again
sudo mhwd-kernel -i linux515
with the same result as before.
What am I overlooking?
try
sudo pacman -S linux515 linux515-nvidia
inxi -Fzasudo pacman -S linux515
gives the same result as
sudo mhwd-kernel -i linux515
I didn’t try linux515-nvidia as I have no nvidia hardware installed (using Intel integrated graphics).
This is a pretty old box I’m playing with, as you can see from the output of inxi -Fza:

As mentioned above. Overwrite the conflicting files:
sudo pacman -Sy linux515 --overwrite "*"
Thank you. So that one command seems to be the entire solution.
sudo pacman -Syyuu --overwrite "*"
did not do it, but
sudo pacman -Sy linux515 --overwrite "*"
did.
Now after rebooting I see
$ mhwd-kernel -li
Currently running: 5.15.78-1-MANJARO (linux515)
The following kernels are installed in your system:
* linux511
* linux515
* linux59
* linux511-rt
I notice that linux511 was not uninstalled but I’ll do it manually after I’m sure that 515 is running OK.
check then
sudo ls /etc/mkinitcpio.d/*.preset
sudo ls /boot/
sudo ls /lib/modules/remove theses old kernels
sudo mhwd-kernel -r linux511
sudo mhwd-kernel -r linux59
sudo mhwd-kernel -r linux511-rtNo surprises there. Before removing the old kernels:
$ ls /etc/mkinitcpio.d/*.preset

I had to remove linux-rt-manjaro also before removing linux511-rt.
I’m curious about this though … Manjaro allows to have multiple kernels installed yet there is only one /usr/lib/modules directory. Is it assumed that newer versions of the modules are always backwards-compatible with older kernels?
Every kernel has its own Directory
Newer versions of the same kernel modules replace older ones when updating
