fastboot flash diags_kernel kt_5.0.0-diags_kernel (from memory, CHECK THAT, I just did)

You are missing a target alias. This is a bad tool to use without understanding. It can do very bad things... (you asked it - with your malformed command - to write from STDIN to an unknown target partition called kt_5.0.0-diags_kernel from what I can make of the error, thanks goodness you dont have one called that ; ) )

try fastboot --help - worth a read. For sure.
