I think the extra u32 is just padding and can be ignored.
Whats the purpose of the ->extra_bytes checks? If its just a data
integrity check, it can be removed because reading past the end of the
record data should not harm. Maybe limit the loops which iterate
->extra_bytes to 7 because more doesnt fit in a trace record.
