I am not sure if this would be a problem that as there is no lock protection for
the progress value. If someone changes imgr->progress into a bad value just
after the first check imgr->progress < IFPGA_SEC_PROG_MAX passed.

One minor thing, dev_err or even WARN_ON should be better, and I think
if it hits this, that will be a critical issue in the driver, isn't it?
