As FreeBSD project treats 15.0 and 15.1 the same the solution is to
use GhostBSD as 'backend' for your FreeBSD desktop because
GhostBSD ALWAYS builds its packages - including kernel related
ones against the FreeBSD version they use - no no such problems.

I mean - install default MATE GhostBSD and then setup your
FreeBSD desktop any way you want with dwm or Openbox or KDE.

You can also use GhostBSD repos on FreeBSD but its risky:

FreeBSD - to not build separate packages for 15.0 and 15.1 and 15.2
introduced additional 'FreeBSD-ports-kmods' pkg(8)repository - where
all kernel related (about 60+ of them) packages are rebuilt against
proper 15.1 or 15.0 version - but if someone forgets to update them
along with kernel upgrade - sometimes kernel panic as in Your case
happens.

Hope that helps.
