I have no idea about this hardware, but it seems strange to me that
calling r8a66597_hub_control with wIndex = 1 should have the same effect
as with wIndex = 0. Is you changed backed by knowledge about the
hardware, or is that just the most obvious way to get rid of the UB
warning?

Having said that, I think

port -= (port > 0);

is hard to read compared to:

if (port > 0)
port--;

Best regards
Uwe
