Well, it died deep in SCSI core so I doubt i8042.noacpi made it do it.

OK, having finally read your .config :) :

#
# Hardware I/O ports

CONFIG_SERIO=m
CONFIG_SERIO_I8042=y

Please make serio core compiled in instead of being a module and also
make sure that you load atkbd module (or make it built-in as well).
