Actually, after looking more closely, NFC_HCI_MAX_PIPES is always used
as the number of supported pipes and not as the max pipe ID, so the
right fix would be:

-#define NFC_HCI_MAX_PIPES 127
+#define NFC_HCI_MAX_PIPES 128

I would prefer to rename it into NFC_HCI_PIPE_COUNT but don't want to
introduce unnecessary churn for one-line change, so will keep the
name. Will post a separate fix for this shortly.
