Will _stp_reserve_bytes() do what you need? 

I am still tweaking our use of relayfs a bit.  Writing directly to a
relayfs channel bypassing the runtime IO functions will likely not work
well or might break in the near future.  If you can explain more what
you are trying to do I am sure we can work out a solution.
