device->baud is always non zero value because it is checked already in
early_serial8250_setup() before init_port is called.

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.


Fixes: 0ff3ab701963 ("serial: 8250_early: Only set divisor if valid clk & baud")
Cc: stable <stable@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

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
