If the number of provided enum IDs in a variable width config register description does not match the expected number, the checker uses the expected number for validating the individual enum IDs. However, this may cause out-of-bounds accesses on the array holding the enum IDs, leading to bogus enum_id conflict warnings. Worse, if the bug is an incorrect bit field description (e.g. accidentally using "12" instead of "-12" for a reserved field), thousands of warnings may be printed, overflowing the kernel log buffer. Fix this by limiting the enum ID check to the number of provided enum IDs.

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.
