The length of qcom,enabled-strings as property array is enough to determine the number of strings to be enabled, without needing to set qcom,num-strings to override the default number of strings when less than the default (which is also the maximum) is provided in DT. This also introduces an extra warning when qcom,num-strings is set, denoting that it is not necessary to set both anymore. It is usually more concise to set just qcom,num-length when a zero-based, contiguous range of strings is needed (the majority of the cases), or to only set qcom,enabled-strings when a specific set of indices is desired.
