In fact it's not because the setprop_strings() helper just uses the \0\0 to detect the end, but truncates what it actually puts into the dtb at the first \0. But I agree this is confusing enough not to really be an improvement over the original version.

This new helper function encodes the idiom used by the ARM virt board to set a string array. I don't currently have a working ARM userspace, so I haven't tested this, but I made the helper function because I wanted to use it for the RISC-V virt board where I have tested it.
