This is the use case where the bootloader loaded the fpga, and you
just want to populate
the devices in the fabric, right?

Looking at socfpga.dtsi, would that mean that the fpgamgr0 node would
need to become a subnode of fpgabus@0 at the same place?

i.e. /soc/fpgamgr@ff706000 -> /soc/fpgabus@0/fpgamgr@ff706000

and the ranges property would be used to translate to the fpga memory
mapped space?

I know we're going back and forth on this. I think Rob brought up a
similar question:
"Does the bus really go thru the fpgamgr and then the bridge as this
implies? Or fpgamgr is a sideband controller?"

To which I think the answer is 'sideband' controller, yet with the new
bindings it looks like
the bus goes through the fpgamgr.

Cheers,

Moritz
