The code has:

                switch (protocol) {
                case I2C_SMBUS_BYTE_DATA:
                        __entry->len = 1;
                        goto copy;
                case I2C_SMBUS_WORD_DATA:
                case I2C_SMBUS_PROC_CALL:
                        __entry->len = 2;
                        goto copy;
                case I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_DATA:
                case I2C_SMBUS_BLOCK_PROC_CALL:
                case I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_DATA:
                        __entry->len = data->block[0] + 1;
                copy:   
                        memcpy(__entry->buf, data->block, __entry->len);
                        break;
                case I2C_SMBUS_QUICK:
                case I2C_SMBUS_BYTE:
                case I2C_SMBUS_I2C_BLOCK_BROKEN:
                default:
                        __entry->len = 0;
                }

I only see two calls to the copy where one is len = 1 and the other is
len = 2. Why not put the check before the copy label?
