  The user_events support events that has empty arguments. But the trace event
is discarded and not really committed when the arguments is empty. Fix this
by not attempting to copy in zero-length data.

This series looks good to me, functionally. I applied it locally and ran
this code with the new test additions. Everything works well. Thank you!

The only thing I ask before an ACK is patch 2 and 4 in the series only use
"user_events: " prefix. Can you change these to "selftests/user_events: "?

You marked 3 this way, so I'd like to stick with a consistent form:
I think it would be good going forward we use "tracing/user_events"
for functional changes and "selftests/user_events" for self test
changes.

Thanks,
-Beau
