Does this interface support partial reprogramming/configuration
for FPGAs that can do that?
trivial notes:
There are a _lot_ of dev_dbg statements.
I hope some of these would be removed one day,
especially the function tracing style ones, because
there's already a generic kernel mechanism for that.
Maybe perf/trace support could be added eventually.

I think this style is awkward and this would be
better written as:
if (!strcmp(buf, "write_init"))
ret = fpga_mgr_write_init(mgr);
else if (!strcmp(buf, "write_complete"))
ret = fpga_mgr_write_complete(mgr);
else if (!strcmp(buf, "read_init"))
ret = fpga_mgr_read_init(mgr);
else if (!strcmp(buf, "read_complete"))
ret = fpga_mgr_read_complete(mgr);
else
ret = -EINVAL;
clear_bit_unlock(FPGA_MGR_DEV_BUSY, &mgr->flags);
if (ret)
return ret;
return count;
}
Maybe use (strcmp(...) == 0) if you prefer that.
Both styles are commonly used in linux.
Probably all of the "return ret ?: count;" uses
would be more easily understood on 3 lines.
