I have some comments :)

If the state.disabled is set, I think __synth_event_trace_start() might
be better to return 0 because all caller change the result.

Should we check trace_state->disabled here too?

And here, we can check "if (ret || state.disabled)" then

We don't need this check.

Ditto.

We can also skip this tweak.
