This bypasses the trace event further down.

Something like that sounds good, the code is getting a bit convoluted.

If that makes handling easier, I think it would be a good idea.

Why do you think that it is not sufficient? USER_STSI basically says
"you may get an exit that tells you about a buffer to fill in some more
data for a stsi command, and we also tell you which call". If userspace
does not know what to add for a certain call, it is free to just do
nothing, and if it does not get some calls it would support, that should
not be a problem, either?

If returning an empty buffer is ok, it should not be a problem, I
guess. (I have not looked yet at the actual definitions.)
