Then you can output a processing instruction like <?break?> using XSLT as
follows:
<xsl:processing-instruction name="break"/>
Then your docbook stylesheet customization can process that into an empty
fo:block to create the line break.

Subject: Re: [docbook] Line spacing
I am aware of the literallayout tag. However, it preserves every thing
inside the tag like extra spaces. That's why I am trying avoid using it.
On the other hand, using a processing instruction like <?break-line?> is
not going to work, because I am not writing a docbook document directly. I
am writing a template (xslt) that will generate a docbook. And I couldn't
find a way to output <?break?> from the xslt to the docbook the way it's
for further processing.

You might try putting your lines inside a literallayout element instead
of individual para elements. In literallayout, line breaks are
preserved in the output, which would eliminate the extra spacing
introduced by para.

Subject: [docbook] Line spacing
How do I control line spacing? I need to write few lines of text and I
am puting each of them in <para> element in order to get the line
break. Now the space between each of them is huge and I need to make it
smaller. How do I proceed ?
