To solve this issue, I suggest to add text to 7.2. of
draft-ietf-6lo-prefix-registration:
"
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1

+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+

... Registration Ownership Verifier ...

+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
Figure 5: EARO Option Format in NS messages
New and updated Option Fields:
<..>
C: 1-bit flag; moved from its position in Figure 1 of [RFC8928], see
Section 9.
"
And in section 9:
"
[RFC8928] defines the "C" flag but fails to explicit the bit number
and fails to make a IANA registration for that bit position. On the
other hand, a position for the bit (bit 3) is represented in Figure 1
of [RFC8928]. [RFC9685] defines the P-Field in bits 2 and 3 of the
EARO flags field, obtains a proper IANA registration, but causes an
overlap with the representation in Figure 1 of [RFC8928]. This
specification updates [RFC8928] to position the "C" flag as bit 1 of
the EARO flag, as represented in Figure 5, to avoid the overlapping
definitions.
"
And finally in the IANA section:
"
12.2. Bit Position of the "C" Flag
This specification updates the location of the "C" flag introduced in
[RFC8928] to position it as bit 1 in the EARO flags. IANA is
requested to make an addition to the "Address Registration Option
Flags" [IANA.ICMP.ARO.FLG] registry under the heading "Internet
Control Message Protocol version 6 (ICMPv6) Parameters" as indicated
in Table 3:
+---------------+----------+-----------+
| ARO flag | Meaning | Reference |
+---------------+----------+-----------+
| 1 (suggested) | "C" Flag | RFC 8928 |
+---------------+----------+-----------+
Table 3: Bit Position of the "C" Flag
"
Does that work?
All the best

Objet : Re: [6lo] [Technical Errata Reported] RFC9685 (8340)
Dear all
I’d suggest that the mistake is on RFC 8928 not this.
The reason being that we failed at the time to ask for a IANA registration
which would have allowed to detect the overlap.
This erratum would imply to change IANA but wouldn’t fix the missing entry…
A bientôt;
Pascal
