These are not 100% dead code like the previous debug macros but I think
we are better off doing another mass delete.

This print is pointless and wrong. It shouldn't be a debug printk it
should be an error message. But kcalloc() already has an error message
built in and adding an additional warning here will lead to a checkpatch
complaint.

I don't know enough to say if this is useful or not, but I'm really
skeptical.

The only caller is efuse_ReadEFuse() and bcnhead is always zero. All
these checks and debug code can be deleted.

This is the wrong place to put debug code. If the loop timesout it will
print a thousand messages. See? So far whenever we can understand the
code enough to say, then it's totally rubbish.
Just do a mass delete. You won't ever regret it.
