Looks like it's as we feared:

 http://www.ti.com/lit/ds/symlink/tps65911.pdf (page 52)

There are only 2 comparators 1 and 2.

Sorry, but I think these defines should describe the indexes into the
supplied struct directly, especially as in this case it is their only
reason for being.

I completely agree with you that defining something that is named '1'
as '0' is not ideal, but IMHO it's better than jumping through hoops
using arithmetic in array indexes.
