Unlike 'client_ops' which is initialized to 'default_client_ops', the
port operations 'ops' may be left to NULL.
Check the 'ops' value before checking the 'ops->x' value.

Nope, I have a revert for this in my tree for 5.2-rc1, no need for this

Please drop it from all branches, thanks.

Dropped from my queue, thanks!
