I agree with that approach in general, but in this case it's a bit
awkward since, these aren't necessarily similarly grouped tests where each
test falls under a certain category of TEST_GROUP_x where a macro would
provide additional information about the nature of the tests related to a
particular SYNC() call, in some cases it's an aggregate of multiple
things, for instance...

Indeed, these are just numbers that match between guest_test_common and test_common. It's not too hard to follow if you look at the two functions side-by-side.
