Have you compared the modules present in the 4.15.14 initrd with the 4.15.15 initrd? Did using the fallback initrd make any difference?

Yes.

Yes, it's mounted from fstab always.
Here is the difference between the new and old initramfs module list.

There is no difference in the fallback modules. It looks like a missing module is the culprit.
Then please try adding i8042 to the modules array of /etc/mkinitcpio.conf
No longer a problem.
> i see hid-generic detected and added just fine here.
I see the same.
