Yes, I think this is the correct fix. However, Brendan's patch is
now in the tip tree as d36067d6ea00 ("bug: Hush
suggest-attribute=format for __warn_printf()").

I hadn't seen your patch but did notice as well that the one
that was merged is not ideal. I decided against sending a fixup
because it looks harmless, but if you want to rebase your patch,
feel free to add
