I cannot make sense of this.
The I-D updates the registries defined in RFC7854 saying
====================
* BMP Peer Down Reason Codes
...
For each of these registries, the ranges 32768-65530 whose
registration procedures were "Specification Required" are revised to
have the registration procedures "First Come First Served".
==============
The I-D does not specify the section numbers in RFC7854 but it would appear
that Peer Down Reason Codes are 10.8 according to the table of contents
10.8. BMP Peer Down Reason Codes . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 24
Erratum 7194 says
3
Section 10.8 says:
Information type values 0 through 32767 MUST be assigned using the
"Standards Action" policy, and values 32768 through 65530 using the
"Specification Required" policy, defined in [RFC5226]. Values 65531
through 65534 are Experimental, and values 0 and 65535 are Reserved.
It should say:
Information type values 0 through 127 MUST be assigned using the
"Standards Action" policy, and values 128 through 250 using the
"Specification Required" policy, defined in [RFC5226]. Values 251
through 254 are Experimental, and values 0 and 255 are Reserved.
Notes:
In Section 4.9 Peer Down Notification. The "Reason" field is defined as one
octet, while the IANA consideration section is defining values as 2-octets
range. This errata suggests updating the IANA registry, instead of the size of
the "Reason" field in the Peer Down Notification message to avoid breaking
existing implementations that use one-octet reason.
==============================
This update seems to be a nonsense

Abstract
This document updates RFC 7854, BGP Monitoring Protocol (BMP) by
making a change to the registration procedures for several
registries. Specifically, any BMP registry with a range of
32768-65530 designated "Specification Required" has that range re-
designated as "First Come First Served".

No IPR declarations have been submitted directly on this I-D.
