You have to remove the hash because having lines starting with a 
hash means it's a comment line, so it should be:
ALLOWHIDDENDIR=/dev/.udev
ALLOWHIDDENFILE=/usr/bin/.ssh.hmac
ALLOWHIDDENFILE=/usr/sbin/.sshd.hmac

Generally speaking warnings should bother you. If they're due to 
distribution defaults and configuration errors it means you have to 
correct them for proper operation. If they're due to attacks (often 
very noisy) then you have a chance of investigating and taking 
measures.

By the way allowing "PermitRootLogin': without-password" and 
"ALLOW_SSH_ROOT_USER': yes" are very much against best practices: 
root should never be allowed to log in over the network regardless.


Best regards,
unSpawn
