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.
