Not much of a commit comment. Even mentioning that half of the patch is code motion rather than new content might be useful.

Now that you've expanded the list, it looks awkward not having VIR_ADD_CAST1(a) VIR_ADD_CAST(a)

+#  define VIR_ADD_CAST2(a, b)                           \
+    VIR_ADD_CAST(a), VIR_ADD_CAST(b)
+#  define VIR_ADD_CAST3(a, b, c)                        \
+    VIR_ADD_CAST(a), VIR_ADD_CAST(b), VIR_ADD_CAST(c)
+#  define VIR_ADD_CAST4(a, b, c, d)                       \
+    VIR_ADD_CAST(a), VIR_ADD_CAST(b), VIR_ADD_CAST(c),    \
+    VIR_ADD_CAST(d)
+#  define VIR_ADD_CAST5(a, b, c, d, e)                    \
+    VIR_ADD_CAST(a), VIR_ADD_CAST(b), VIR_ADD_CAST(c),    \
+    VIR_ADD_CAST(d), VIR_ADD_CAST(e)
+#  define VIR_ADD_CAST6(a, b, c, d, e, f)                 \
+    VIR_ADD_CAST(a), VIR_ADD_CAST(b), VIR_ADD_CAST(c),    \
+    VIR_ADD_CAST(d), VIR_ADD_CAST(e), VIR_ADD_CAST(f)
+#  define VIR_ADD_CAST7(a, b, c, d, e, f, g)              \
+    VIR_ADD_CAST(a), VIR_ADD_CAST(b), VIR_ADD_CAST(c), \
+    VIR_ADD_CAST(d), VIR_ADD_CAST(e), VIR_ADD_CAST(f),      \
+    VIR_ADD_CAST(g)

Up to here is reachable...

+#  define VIR_ADD_CAST8(a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h)           \
+    VIR_ADD_CAST(a), VIR_ADD_CAST(b), VIR_ADD_CAST(c),    \
+    VIR_ADD_CAST(d), VIR_ADD_CAST(e), VIR_ADD_CAST(f),      \
+    VIR_ADD_CAST(g), VIR_ADD_CAST(h)
+#  define VIR_ADD_CAST9(a, b, c, d, e, f, g, h, i)        \
+    VIR_ADD_CAST(a), VIR_ADD_CAST(b), VIR_ADD_CAST(c),          \
+    VIR_ADD_CAST(d), VIR_ADD_CAST(e), VIR_ADD_CAST(f),      \
+    VIR_ADD_CAST(g), VIR_ADD_CAST(h), VIR_ADD_CAST(i)

but these two are impossible given your definition of VIR_COUNT_ARGS. To really support 9 arguments, VIR_COUNT_ARGS needs to call VIR_ARG11(__VA_ARGS__, 10, 9, ...).

ACK with that fixed. Everything else looks like a lot of stap black magic, but the end result is indeed a setup that can be easily traced to track traffic.
