I think that there are a lot of reason to implement a communication channel with smart card in kernel mode.
An example is:
have you ever tried to write any kernel service that uses smart card to store cryptographics keys with a userland lib or framework?
What's the problem with the manipulation of keys in userland?
As far as I know the kernel part of IPSec get its keys from user land programs for example.
Your motivation for doing like this is for security or because of an implementation constraint?
It also seems like a bad idea to put APDU knowledge into the kernel.
