Here's what I've come up with instead:

#define _do_print(func, prefix, action, node, prop, ...) ({ \
  if (prop) \
    func(prefix "%-15s %pOF:%s\n", ##__VA_ARGS__,
action_names[action], node, prop); \
  else \
    func(prefix "%-15s %pOF\n", ##__VA_ARGS__, action_names[action], node);\
})
#define of_changeset_action_err(...) _do_print(pr_err, __VA_ARGS__)
#define of_changeset_action_debug(...) _do_print(pr_debug, __VA_ARGS__)
