We have a similar type of check in function exit.
But that would trigger only if we are lite restoring to port[0]. 

So more coverage with this and being explicit...

But this here looks like we could get rid of the
	GEM_BUG_ON(port_isset(execlists->port) &&
		   !execlists_is_active(execlists, EXECLISTS_ACTIVE_USER));

on end of dequeue and trust this master check you added here.
