Well, just a guess, but I'd say your problem is with kernel device
drivers for input. Usually people have the basic text showing up on
their console and the complaints are about how to get ^C and other
tty-specific features to work while using /dev/console. Your problem
sounds more like the Linux virtual console subsystem isn't connecting to
your input devices. I'd suggest poking around in the input drivers
section of the config and make sure things are compiled as "=y" and not
as modules.

This is really frustrating! Perhaps there is some kernel parameter
for 3.10.108 kernels which needs to be set (or unset)??? These are

CONFIG_HID=y
CONFIG_HID_GENERIC=y
CONFIG_USB_HID=y
CONFIG_USB_SUPPORT=y
CONFIG_USB_COMMON=y
CONFIG_USB=y
It is definitely the kernel. If the custom (based on "make
menuconfig" of boel)
3.10.108 kernel is replaced with a stock Centos 7 kernel then
What do you get from "grep CONSOLE .config" in each of the two kernels ?
The one where the keyboard does not work:
# CONFIG_NETCONSOLE is not set
CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_HW_CONSOLE=y
# CONFIG_VT_HW_CONSOLE_BINDING is not set
CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_SERIAL_CORE_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_VGA_CONSOLE=y
CONFIG_DUMMY_CONSOLE=y
The one where where the keyboard does work:
CONFIG_NETCONSOLE=m

CONFIG_CONSOLE_TRANSLATIONS=y
CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE=y

That said, there are a zillion other differences...
