[PATCH] power: reset: Fix array out of bounds access

In reboot_mode_register() we iterate over the properties of the given
node in order to count the valid properties. The count is then used to
allocate arrays which are then filled in another iteration loop over the
properties. In that loop we use the array entries before we actually
realize that the property is invalid and shall be skipped. That means
we access an out of bounds array entry when the very last property in
the node is invalid. In my case this blew up when enabling
CONFIG_OF_OVERLAY_LIVE which results in an additional phandle = <xy>
property in the node.
Fix this by simply allocating one array entry more than finally needed.
