Through a quick glance, I guess it's rather harmless (although a bit
fragile from the code sanity POV).
A MIDI port could be closed at any time, and the dp->max_mididevs
holds locally the upper bound of currently possibly accessible ports.
The actual access to each port is done via get_mdev() in
seq_oss_midi.c, which is a sort of refcount managed, and it should be
fine that a port disappears meanwhile.
That said, it'd be even feasible just dropping dp->max_mididevs field
and scan all MIDI ports at each time, but it won't bring much benefit,
either.
