If leaving my custom keyboard layout files in /etc/xkb directory will
work, it will suit my needs.
I just wonder if it should be /etc/xkb/symbols/ directory or just
/etc/xkb directory to place a keyboard layout file like "us", for
example.

I think the reply on the bug gave a clue. Your user files should be in
/etc/xkb. Given that reply should work with Gentoo, I'd try that
first. If that doesn't work

Just curious about Gentoo users estimated compile times on AMD Ryzen
Threadripper Pro 5965WX and AMD Ryzen 9 9950X3D.
I mean packages like firefox, gentoo-kernel, chromium, libreoffice.
As suggestion:
From the system that you use to chroot, use hwid software to get all
needed to boot.
Compile your own kernel without genkernel assuring that the options of
hwid are included in kernel (not as modules).
