unused-but-set-variable was disabled, because it was a new warning in
gcc 4.6 and produced too much noise relatively to its severity. A make
W=1 build of x86_64_defconfig gives:
$ grep -c 'Wunused-but-set-variable' log
77
$ grep -c 'Wunused-variable' log
0

More exotic configuration will probably result in a couple of unused
variable warnings, but that IMO no reason to disable them globally.

If it's noise in a particular case, there is always the option to add

CFLAGS_memcontrol.o := $(call cc-disable-warning, unused-variable)

to the respective Makefile.
