This patch depends on latest fpga/dfl changes which I see are mixed with
other changes on FPGA drivers tree so they cannot be provided
independently from others as a stable tag.  Unless Moritz can rebase his
tree and put them on separate branch.

Your "Modularization of DFL private feature drivers" should be sent
along with this here, so all the maintainers see the dependencies and
they can apply things for cross-merging at the beginning of the process.

Therefore please send a v3 of this patch with the fix above and let's
apply it via Moritz's tree.

Best regards,
Krzysztof
