Do you think it is a user-space bug if the kernel goes to sleep again
before giving user space any chance to react to an event?

And the msec parameter is described as:

@msec: Anticipated event processing time (in milliseconds).

Isn't calling pm_wakeup_event() with a non-zero msec the standard
method to handle this situation? And it is used in other drivers. E.g. in
_mmc_detect_change() or hub_suspend().

And if I understand the code of __pm_wakeup_event() correctly it does
*not* delay, but just modifies the wakeup_source timer to expire a little
later. I.e. keep the system longer awake. So as long as the system is
not suspended there is no difference to current driver.

I am not sure how it could look like.
