What I mean is that all over the code you have added

if (serial->num_ports == 1 && mos7840_port->...)


If a future device has LEDs and multiple ports, or a future device has
one port and no LED then all of them will need changing.

Instead if you had code in one place at initialisation which did


	if (type == 7840 && serial->num_ports == 1)
			mos7840_port->has_led = true;


then elsewhere did


	if (mos7840_port->has_led && ....)


then it will avoid problems in the future.
