Thanks for the correction, I revisited and referenced more similar use
cases, and indeed, only if the flag "has_*" is true, its corresponding
field should be considered reliable.

Keeping explicit checking on has_* and explicit initialization of these
topology variables makes the code more readable.

This patch is over-optimized and I would drop it.

Regards,
Zhao
