True, currently init_port is only called from the one location and so the test is a little redundant, though I don't see the harm in testing both inputs to the divisor calculation immediately before use such that any future call path avoids setting a bad divisor.

Even if the test is dropped going forward, I wouldn't consider it's presence a "bug" such that a fix needs to be backported.
Thanks, Matt
