Yes.

There will be a few more clients of the service layer: QSPI, Crypto
and warm reset.

Right, this should be describing hardware.

I could add this to the service layer binding:

firmware {
        svc {
                compatible = "intel,stratix10-svc";
                method = "smc";
                memory-region = <&service_reserved>;
                fpga-mgr {
                        compatible = "intel,stratix10-soc-fpga-mgr";
                };
        };
};

Ouch.  Yes.

Warning (unit_address_vs_reg): Node /soc/fpga-mgr@0 has a unit name,
but no reg property

Thanks for the review,
