Yes it is not scalable if there is a need to scale as mentioned earlier.
Do you have any other events that can be emulated in Qemu ?

Having said that, I am okay with single call back though but not too sure
about read/write callback unless there is a use case to support those.

Lot of these events are microarchitectural events which can't be
supported in Qemu.
I don't think it's a good idea at all to add dummy values for all the
events defined in a platform
which is harder to debug for a user.
