On "normal" (defconfig) builds the warning does not show up because CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER is set.
I've found the unused bp because CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER was not set in my configuration.

  CC      arch/um/kernel/sysrq.o
arch/um/kernel/sysrq.c: In function ‘show_stack’:
arch/um/kernel/sysrq.c:32:29: warning: unused variable ‘bp’ [-Wunused-variable]

It's reproducible on linus-tree (0429fbc0b) by
make mrproper
make tinyconfig ARCH=um SUBARCH=i386
make ARCH=um SUBARCH=i386
