The problem with the original code is that the variable is named "k"
instead of "retry". It should be:
do {
Bytetemp = rtw_read8(Adapter, EFUSE_CTRL+3);
} while (!(Bytetemp & 0x80)) && ++retry < 1000);

Yeah. That was my thought reviewing this patch as well.
It should probably return 0xff on failure.
if (retry >= 1000)
return 0xff;
