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().
