While this is true, I believe that some other mistake is made.

If you look a few lines up, then you see that bt_msr is OR-ed with MSR_AP
for AP interfaces. The 0xfc should be 0x03, see other drivers for example:

rtl8723ae/hw.c:1112:    if ((bt_msr & 0x03) == MSR_AP)
rtl8723be/hw.c:1200:    if ((bt_msr & 0x03) == MSR_AP)
rtl8192cu/hw.c:1363:    if ((bt_msr & 0xfc) == MSR_AP)
rtl8192ce/hw.c:1209:    if ((bt_msr & 0xfc) == MSR_AP)
rtl8188ee/hw.c:1234:    if ((bt_msr & 0xfc) == MSR_AP)
rtl8192de/hw.c:1131:    if ((bt_msr & 0xfc) == MSR_AP)
