Vortex86 SoC use RDC based harware which isn't enabled on Fedora as their baseline doesn't support these boards. These changes will let Gentoo support the following stage3s on x86 https://wiki.gentoo.org/wiki/User:Immolo/ebox-3350dx3#Stage3 and any amd64 board that uses these chipset in the future.

Doesn't this enable all that for all architectures, while it's only relevant to amd64 (and perhaps i686)?

You are right, do you think enabling 32bit.config again is the best way forward for this one?

Rather per-arch configs.

However, if it's just i686, then I suppose we can merge it into https://github.com/projg2/fedora-kernel-config-for-gentoo, since Fedora doesn't support i686 anymore.

Based on mgorny's advise I have turned this into an x86 only config.

I will wire this up into sys-kernel/gentoo-kernel ebuild shortly.

I still think it'd be better to do it straight into the Fedora kernel config repo.

Do it on top of https://github.com/projg2/fedora-kernel-config-for-gentoo/tree/6.13.1-gentoo tag and I'll push it back, however far you need it.
