[ Upstream commit5ada78b26f] When not specifying num-strings in the DT the default is used, but +1 is added to it which turns WLED3 into 4 and WLED4/5 into 5 strings instead of 3 and 4 respectively, causing out-of-bounds reads and register read/writes. This +1 exists for a deficiency in the DT parsing code, and is simply omitted entirely - solving this oob issue - by parsing the property separately much like qcom,enabled-strings. This also enables more stringent checks on the maximum value when qcom,enabled-strings is provided in the DT, by parsing num-strings after enabled-strings to allow it to check against (and in a subsequent patch override) the length of enabled-strings: it is invalid to set num-strings higher than that. The DT currently utilizes it to get around an incorrect fixed read of four elements from that array (has been addressed in a prior patch) by setting a lower num-strings where desired.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
