Oh and another comment ...

I'm not sure about drivers/fpga ... in the end, one would expect such a
directory to contain stuff to manipulate FPGAs in the sense of
downloading bitfiles, instanciating devices (device-tree manipulation ?)
etc...

>From what I see in your code, the fact that these are FPGAs is almost
irrelevant, you are providing support for "carma" devices, and such are
no different than some other platform device, they just happen to be
implemented as FPGAs. Or am I missing something ?

Cheers,
Ben.
