This comment was not about the *name*, it was about the fact that it's
a single instance that applies to *all* controllers.  It might be the
case that current hardware only supports a single controller, or that
if you have multiple controllers they all use the same port_conf_off
value, but for generality, values like this would normally be in the
per-controller structure.
