Yup, it would be nice.

Also it is far from obvious what @is_prepended_buf means if you do not
have context of this patchset. I think about a more generic name
that comes from the wording used in 3rd patch, e.g.

    @need_scratch_space or @using_scratch_space or @dirty_buf

Anyway, the most easy way to pass this as a parameter would be to add it
to __test() and define a wrapper, .e.g:

static void __printf(3, 4) __init
__test(const char *expect, int elen, bool using_scratch_space,
	const char *fmt, ...)

/*
 * More relaxed test for non-standard formats that are using the provided buffer
 * as a scratch space and write beyond the trailing '\0'.
 */
#define test_using_scratch_space(expect, fmt, ...)			\
	__test(expect, strlen(expect), true, fmt, ##__VA_ARGS__)
