The compiler is wrong in reporting the additional warnings. [SerializeField] is most prominently used exactly to assign values in the inspector. Unity also is all about magic functions and magic switches, so this should and can most likely be adjusted (the previous compiler had this magic adjustment, showing that it must be possible).

#pragma warning disable 0649
// your code
#pragma warning restore 0649
Or disable it globally by adding a file named csc.rsp to the root of you Assets folder, e.g. Assets/csc.rsp, with the following contents without quotes.
/nowarn:0649
This will tell the C# compiler to not emit a warning for CS0649 / unused fields.
If you have .asmdefs with csc.rsp in your project, then you also need to add the "/nowarn:0649" line to those csc.rsp files.
