Your actual patch removes the check that was already there.

Please do not make this sort of gratuitous change.  There is no compelling
reason that a local variable has to have one name or another, and I don't
like polluting the revision history with unnecessary cosmetic changes.

This is not appropriate.  There is nothing wrong with the number of live
control ports going to zero.  


I've applied the other (two) changes.  Only the node-create.c change was a
bug fix.  It would be ideal if you could separate bug fixes from other
changes that do not affect the behavior.
