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 allowing one extra iteration of the wled_var_cfg function parsing this particular property.

0 is not a valid value for this property.
These comments represent the possible loop iterations the DT "cfg parser" runs through, starting at j=0 and running up until and including j=3. Should I make that more clear or omit these comments entirely?
The role of wled3_num_strings_values_fn() is to enumerate the list of legal values for the property [ 1, 2, 3 ]. Your changes cause the enumeration to include a non-legal value so that you can have an identity mapping between the symbol and the enumerate value.
An alternative approach would be to leave the enumeration logic alone but set the num_string default to UINT_MAX in all cases:
- cfg->num_strings = cfg->num_strings + 1;
- if (cfg->num_strings == UINT_MAX)
cfg->num_strings =
Oops... looks like I missed the cfg->max_string_count here.
- else
/* Convert from enumerated to numeric form */cfg->num_strings = wled3_num_strings_values_fn(cfg->num_strings);
PS the alternative option is not to treat num-strings as an enumerated value at all and just read it directly without using wled_values()...
