  This is just a side-effect of the way the packages are built. 
  
  When a new source upload is made then it is built for all available
 architectures, even if the changes are not useful / relevant for them.

  Typically security updates apply to all architectures.  In this
 case just be glad you got "lucky" - and you don't have to schedule
 reboot(s) of all your server(s).
