In my opinion, there is not point to add more weird macros as it is
much easier to disable the warning related to unused arguments with
a compiler option.
Either we do nothing or we remove the "#pragma"s. I am not keen of
replacing them with something else. Just my opinion.

Regards,

PS: the form I have seen is "#define UNUSED(x) (void)(x)"
