So since I'm writing to an sd card I know will boot and run it, should I rename this kernel to kernel-4.4.9-rt17.img and update /boot/config.txt to match? Didn't want to wait, did it anyway, as anything named kernel.img will get wiped by an upgrade. Time to go plug it in and try it.
If this fixes the keyboard problem, I WILL be a happy camper.
