Yes, that's done already but clang ignores it apparently.

Indeed.

I looked once more and found out that:

   clang -Wp,-MMD,arch/powerpc/math-emu/.fcmpu.o.d -nostdinc 
-I./arch/powerpc/include -I./arch/powerpc/include/generated  -I./include

If you move -Wunused before -Wno-unused-but-set-variable, then you don't 
have the warning/error anymore. So what ? What the hell is clang 
behaving that way ?

GCC documentation is explicit, see 
https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Warning-Options.html :

   The combined effect of positive and negative forms is that more 
specific options have priority over less specific ones, independently of 
their position in the command-line.

Can clang be fixed ?
