One more thing: just like with the docstring, it's often better to
name the function after what it *does* than after who uses it.

This applies less to hooks and such (which tend to be rather
specific/ad-hoc), but here it does because your piece of advice is
actually quite generic:

    (defun my-inhibit-messages (orig &rest args)
      (let ((inhibit-message t))
        (apply orig args)))
    (advice-add 'cpp-highlight-buffer :around #'my-inhibit-messages)

Oh, yet another thing: you can shorten the function slightly to

    (defun my-inhibit-messages (&rest args)
      (let ((inhibit-message t))
        (apply args)))
