I think we had this discussion during the original review of the
stratix10-soc driver?

Wasn't the point of using the BIT() to not assume alignment of FPGA_MGR
flags and firmware structure?

The FPGA_MGR_* bits are kernel internal and can therefore change, it
would be unfortunate to end up in a situation where this breaks the FW
interface (assuming firmware uses the value in pass-through which it
looks like is what is happening).

Do you want to change this to BIT(COMMAND_AUTHENTICATE_BITSTREAM) or
something like that?
