please use dev_err() here.

dev_err(), too.

we will always get timed out error if info->config_complete_timeout_us
is zero. Can we change to
	u32 i = 0;
	...
	do {
		...
	} while (info->config_complete_timeout_us > i++);
?

Should we move this header to include/linux/? We can use register/
unregister functions in other drivers (PCIe) outside drivers/fpga
then.
