Research direction
Start by reproducing the tdnf update from 4.19.148-7.ph3-esx to 4.19.154-3.ph3-esx and inspect the generated initramfs for the duplicate usr/share/keymaps/ppc/all/mac-be.map.gz entry. Done means identifying and resolving the update path so the machine reboots into 4.19.154-3.ph3-esx without the kernel panic.
