Ok.

"drop the numbering", do you refer to this patch alone or previous patch
also? If it is for this patch alone then it makes sense as they are
going to be 0 and 1 anyway. But if we drop the numbering in the previous
patch it will become 0 which will create an issue in the below line as
it needs 1,

FIELD_PREP(OA_TC6_CTRL_HEADER_WRITE, reg_op)

Could you clarify? or do I have any misunderstanding here?

Yes, I will use -EPROTO in the next version as it is likely "Protocol error"
