All that is happening is the compiler is saying that variables have been declared, 
however, they haven't been used, aka, they aren't errors. What is happening is that 
all variables required have been declared my that particular maintainer, and as the 
programmers go along, they will gradually use the variables up. This normally occurs 
when a driver is still development.
