Kernel RPM package cannot be recovered if partially installed on VSA during upgrade (22625)

Consider a scenario in which the appliance is rebooted or shut down at Started upgrade from current_version to update_version step and new kernel RPM package is partially installed on the appliance. In this scenario, bootstrap loader fails to load kernel in memory and the appliance fails to boot and directly grub command line is shown to user. All other partially installed RPM packages except kernel package on the appliance can be recovered during upgrade at system start time. If kernel RPM package gets corrupted due to system reboot or shutdown during upgrade, we cannot recover it as boot process of the system fails. Appliance goes in unrecoverable state due to corrupt kernel in it.
