It seems you forgot to describe what each patch does and why.

The EDK2 project has few recommendations:
https://github.com/tianocore/tianocore.github.io/wiki/Commit-Message-Format

Personally I find this link very explicit:
https://wiki.openstack.org/wiki/GitCommitMessages#Information_in_commit_messages

You could paste the relevant part of the GCC error you get,
and explain why you decided to do your change:
"This variable is never read, we can safely remove it because ..."

Sometime the proper fix for a warning is not to remove the unused code,
but check why this code is not used, and fix by using it correctly.

If you can justify it is safe to remove unused code, then it is fine.

Regards,

Phil.
