If we focus on that then there isn't much else to say, Mufasa (not in the dream part) didn't do anything, and yes I know he couldn't cause he's dead but he could have done something in spirit/cloud form or talked to someone in their sleep.
I would say Zazu but he did warn Simba about the attack and find Kiara at the fire scene.
Rafiki was needed in the scence that if he hadn't 'told' Simba that Kovu had saved Kiara Kovu would have been kicked out, killed or something else. And because he got Kovu and Kiara together.
Actually Mufasa wasn't all that useless because he got Rafiki to get Kovu and Kiara together.
So as for now I don't see anyone as useless. ^^

The past is a gaping hole. You try to run from it, but the more you run, the deeper it grows behind you, its edges yawning at your heels. Your only chance is to turn around and face it. But it's like looking down into the grave of your love, or kissing the mouth of a gun, a bullet trembling in its dark nest, ready to blow your head off.
