There aren't. That's why there isn't a zero'th reset (and also not 3~11, 17~24).

Or should the driver be reorganized to provide a mapping of logical to
physical resets, and then have only the needed once present and start
counting logical resets from 0? This is doable, of course, but it's a
bit of effort just for the aesthetical goal of starting to count from
zero and continous in header file.

And, of course, chances are that other currently still unused bits
will be needed at a later point which then would mean having to add
them in at least 2 places (header file and mapping logical<->physical)
where as currently it would just mean adding a line defining it in the
header file.

A quick looks at all the other headers in
include/dt-binding/reset/mt*-resets.h also shows that currently all of
them have unused bits and e.g. infracfg on MT7986 starts counting from
6.
