The property length which returns from "of_get_property", it means array bytes count if the property has prefix as "/bits/ 8". The driver should call function "of_property_read_u8_array" to get correct array value.

V1 -> V2: Fix Sam comment, use of_property_read_u8_array to get array value

The current implementation do a two step approach. First is find the number of elements and then read the elements. The number of elements is only used to limit what is read.
I suggest to use:
of_property_read_u8_array(dev->of_node, "analogix,lane0-swing", pdata->lane0_reg_data, DP_TX_SWING_REG_CNT);
Then you a guaranteed to read at maximum DP_TX_SWING_REG_CNT entries. And as the number of elements is not stored anywhere that should be fine.
This looks simpler and matches what we for example do in drivers/gpu/drm/arm/malidp_drv.c - the only user in gpu/ of of_property_read_u8_array().
