[0/10] dropping more unused parameters

Message

This is the last of my series of patches to drop (or use) unused
function parameters. I've been holding on to some of these for almost 2
years, because I wanted to make sure they weren't actually bugs
(dropping unused parameters can never _introduce_ a bug, but it's a good
opportunity to investigate whether the parameter _should_ have been
used). I'm still not entirely convinced that patch 10 isn't actually a
bug, but I wasn't able to puzzle it out either way, and it didn't seem
worth holding up the topic any longer.

After this lands, I have a follow-on series that annotates cases where
we can't drop parameters (e.g., functions which have to conform to a
callback interface, but don't care about some of the parameters). And
then after that we can flip on -Wunused-parameters going forward. Which
I think is worth doing, as it has found some bugs (fixed in earlier
series).
