I don't understand a bit,My idea is 

in userland

fd=open("tty3270",O_RDONLY)
...
ret=ioctl(fd,KDGKBDIACR,NULL)
...

then here 
drivers/s390/char/keyboard.c
477 
case KDGKBDIACR:
        {
                struct kbdiacrs __user *a = argp;
                struct kbdiacr diacr;
                int i;
                
                //a is NULL,a->kb_cnt will crash
                if (put_user(kbd->accent_table_size, &a->kb_cnt))
