Hrm, I like the intent, but the end result ends up being rather convoluted and
unnecessarily scary, e.g. this would do the wrong thing if the combined size of
the fields is not a multiple of 8. That's obviously is not true, but relying on
insn_size/insn_bytes being carefully selected while simultaneously obscuring that
dependency is a bit mean. What about a compile-time assertion with a more reader
friendly literal for bumping the count?
BUILD_BUG_ON((sizeof(run->emulation_failure.insn_size) +
sizeof(run->emulation_failure.insn_bytes) != 16));
ndata_start += 2;

Oof, coming back to this code after some time away, "ndata_start" is confusing.
I believe past me thought that it would help convey that "info" is lumped into
the arbitrary data, but for me at least it just ends up making the interaction
with @data and @ndata more confusing. Sorry for the bad suggestion :-/
What about info_start? IMO, that makes the memcpy more readable. Another option
would be to have the name describe the number of "ABI enries", but I can't come
up with a variable name that's remotely readable.
memcpy(&run->internal.data[info_start], info, sizeof(info));
memcpy(&run->internal.data[info_start + ARRAY_SIZE(info)], data,
ndata * sizeof(data[0]));
> + memcpy(&run->internal.data[ndata_start + ARRAY_SIZE(info)], data,

Not that it really matters, but it's probably better to use sizeof(data[0]) or
sizeof(*data). E.g. if we do screw up the param in the future, we only botch the
output formatting, as opposed to dumping kernel stack data to userspace.

Please run these out to 80 chars. Even 80 is a soft limit, it's ok to run over
a bit if the end result is (subjectively) prettier.

And also explicitly stating the debug info isn't ABI, e.g.
