The problem with dead code is that it's often forgotten when
other changes are made, and then it doesn't even compile or
work anymore.

I'd be happier if this was dependent on some debug static
bool instead, ala:

static bool zbd_debug;

And then have check_swd() do

if (!zbd_debug)
    return;

instead of hiding everything behind an #if 0.
