 From the User guild 
https://www.altera.com/documentation/dsu1441819344145.html#dsu1442261652730, 
it says Configuration via Protocol (CvP) is a configuration scheme 
supported inArria^® V,Cyclone^® V,Stratix^® V, andArria^® 10device 
families. But I have seen different CvP registers bitmask defines 
somewhere else, so I am not positive that there is only one CvP protocol 
for all Altera FPGAs. Maybe we could put those Vs + Arria 10 as 
supported devices on the Kconfig file on the safe side?
