[PATCH AUTOSEL 6.3 05/17] tracing/user_events: Fix the incorrect trace record for empty arguments events

[ Upstream commit 6f05dcabe5c241d066ec472cf38ac8b84f8c9c6f ]

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.
