Section 2.1, pg.5 says:
Prefix Length A sixteen-byte field containing the Mobile IPv6 Network Prefix; all insignificant (low-order) bits (beyond the Prefix Length) MUST be set to 0 by the originator of the option and ignored by the receiver. Mobile IPv6 Network Prefix A sixteen-byte field containing the Mobile IPv6 Network Prefix
It should say:
Prefix Length | Indicates the prefix length of the prefix included in the Mobile | IPv6 Network Prefix field. A value of 255 indicates that a link- | local address is included in the Mobile IPv6 Network Prefix field. Mobile IPv6 Network Prefix | A sixteen-byte field containing the Mobile IPv6 Network Prefix; | all insignificant (low-order) bits (beyond the Prefix Length) MUST | be set to 0 by the originator of the option and ignored by the | receiver.
Notes:
The replacement text apparently has been placed into the wrong
field explanation.
The text presented for "Prefix Length" is the text that should
be specified for "Mobile IPv6 Network Prefix"; the correct text
for "Prefix Length" (as shown above) is borrowed from Section 2.2.

Section 3.6,pp.13/14 says:
When IPv6 runs over an IPv4 tunnel, the IPv6 tunnel endpoints can treat the IPv4 tunnel as a single hop link as defined in [RFC4213]. The two tunnel endpoints, e.g., mobile node and home agent, MUST configure link-local IPv6 addresses as defined in Section 3.7 of [RFC4213], while they MUST also adhere to the neighbor discovery requirements of the same specification, Section 3.8, and the hop | limit requirements of Section 3.3.

Notes:
Rationale: The text should also make clear to which document
(this RFC or RFC 4213) the last section number given refers.
Pointing to RFC 4213 twice (but not in the final case) could be
misunderstood, in particular due to the presence of the comma in
front of the "and" in a two-item list.

Section 2.2, pg.7 says:
The following values are defined for use as a Code value in the above extension: | 0 registration accepted, IPv6 to be tunneled to HoA | 1 registration accepted, IPv6 to be tunneled to CoA 8 registration rejected, reason unspecified 9 registration rejected, administratively prohibited
It should say:
The following values are defined for use as a Code value in the above extension: | 0 registration accepted, IPv6 will be tunneled to HoA | 1 registration accepted, IPv6 will be tunneled to CoA 8 registration rejected, reason unspecified 9 registration rejected, administratively prohibited
Notes:
Rationale: The extension described in this section is sent
from the Home Agent to the Mobile Node and reflects the decisions
made by the Home Agent. "to be tunnelled" could be misunderstood;
the text should better be stated as a confirmation; hence s/to/will/.
--VERIFIER NOTES--
The wording clearly conveys the action of tunneling the extension.
