Hi Joel,

ChangeLog is in my last mail.  Re-post below for your review.

2015-01-18  Wei-cheng Wang  <cole945@gmail.com>

	* rs6000-tdep.c (ppc_process_record_op4, ppc_process_record_op19,
	ppc_process_record_op31, ppc_process_record_op59,
	ppc_process_record_op60, ppc_process_record_op63,
	ppc_process_record): Fix -Wformat warning.
	* rs6000-tdep.c (rs6000_epilogue_frame_cache, ppc_process_record_op60):
	Remove unused variables.

I've added the missing comments.  See below.

Thanks,
