will fix.

The kernel convention is to follow the style in the file, which isn't
currently tab aligned.

So this also is the style of the file.  It seems to be because the
internal OID enum is always a fed in constant from kernel code (no user
space exposure) so it's designed to trip in a developer test boot to
alert the developer to bad code.

Technically it's an underflow (provided buffer is too small) and we
don't have an E2SMALL error ...

Sure, I can add that.
