Ok, so after a bit of nothing we took another look at this board, and specifically the BMON current sense area, because it looked like a bomb exploded. I managed to restore the circuit, a capacitor was missing, 3v3_S0 was not getting to pin5 of U5601 because of blown trace, and there was a high resistance short to ground on 3v3_S0. after restoration of this area the trackpad and keyboard are now working again under OS.
I guess the system was getting a message that too much power was being used or something? Or maybe it's just coincidence, buit it's solved anyway.
Thanks for the assistence with this one.

Duke is torturing you! ;) This problem is bad SPI line to the CPU as often as PPBUS_G3H short to ground on a 3787 is a dead CPU. I have an entire stack of these waiting for CPUs to cost $10-$30, not much that can be done.
