The register value is a portmap, so using port_cnt may be wrong.

The chip is a 7-port switch.  There is a 6-port variant, but it is okay to write 0x7F.

There is also a 3-port variant which uses a different design.  It is a bit of stretch to use 0x7F on it.

It is more a code readability or correctness than incorrect hardware operation.
