I think having the owner in fpga_manager_ops made sense when it was
meant to be set while initializing the struct in the low-level module.
However, since the owner is now passed as an argument and set at
registration time, keeping it in the FPGA manager context seems more
straightforward to me.

Do you mean keeping the kernel-doc comments only for the __fpga_mgr_*
functions in fpga-mgr.c?

Do you prefer having the macro just above the function prototype? Like:

#define devm_fpga_mgr_register(parent, name, mops, priv) \
	__devm_fpga_mgr_register(parent, name, mops, priv, THIS_MODULE)
struct fpga_manager *
__devm_fpga_mgr_register(struct device *parent, const char *name,
			 const struct fpga_manager_ops *mops, void *priv,
			 struct module *owner);
