Jason Gunthorpe 1d7f1589d3 fpga: Clarify how write_init works streaming modes
This interface was designed for streaming, but write_init's buf
argument has an unclear purpose. Define it to be the first bytes
of the bitstream. Each driver gets to set how many bytes (at most)
it wants to see. Short bitstreams will be passed through as-is, while
long ones will be truncated.

The intent is to allow drivers to peek at the header before the transfer
actually starts.

Alan Tull 40e83578fd doc: fpga-mgr: add fpga image info to api
This patch adds a minor change in the FPGA Manager API
to hold information that is specific to an FPGA image
file.  This change is expected to bring little, if any,
pain.

An FPGA image file will have particulars that affect how the
image is programmed to the FPGA.  One example is that
current 'flags' currently has one bit which shows whether the
FPGA image was built for full reconfiguration or partial
reconfiguration.  Another example is timeout values for
enabling or disabling the bridges in the FPGA.  As the
complexity of the FPGA design increases, the bridges in the
FPGA may take longer times to enable or disable.

This patch documents the change in the FPGA Manager API
functions, replacing the 'u32 flag' parameter with a pointer
to struct fpga_image_info.

Alan Tull 9dce0287a6 fpga: add method to get fpga manager from device
The intent is to provide a non-DT method of getting
ahold of a FPGA manager to do some FPGA programming.

This patch refactors of_fpga_mgr_get() to reuse most of it
while adding a new method fpga_mgr_get() for getting a
pointer to a fpga manager struct, given the device.
