Do you intend the "simple-fpga-bus" to be used on Zynq as well? The
whole concept of the socfpga's "FPGA Bridge" doesn't map to the Zynq at
all, from what I can tell.

Therefore, I would have expected the FPGA Bridge drivers to sit under
the fpga-socfpga driver, and not be a first class feature of the
kernels' FPGA manager subsystem.
