[Sailfish X] Can I flash Xperia Kernel 4.4 instead of 3.10?

Hi,

I would like to know if it is possible to take the new AOSP loire kernel 4.4 available from Sony. What are the odds that this newer kernel would work when flashed together with Sailfish X instead of 3.10? I have an Xperia using a custom Android ROM (OMNI) with 7.1.2 and recently acquired Sailfish X, which points me to the 3.10 kernel image.

How would one gernerally compile a custom kernel to be used with Sailfish X? Can the available adaption guides and manuals provided for SailfishOS be applied here as well?

Can someone advise me on this and maybe point out some good starting points? I'm new to Sailfish and am having difficulties to collect all the relevant information to hardware adaption.

Thanks in advance!
