ok, will move VSEC_PCIE_EXT_CAP_ID_VAL below the offset.

Which interface is preffered here? Do you suggest sysfs? Won't be able
to pass the parameter on kernel command line, then.

I'll drop the numclks parameter here and will use a fixed value. I do not
need it for current configurations and if anyone needs it and actually has
the devices and bitstreams to test it, feel free to implement it using the
preferred interfaces.

it is a dummy and can be anything. So why not? I re-used some code
where this value was chosen. Can change it to 0.

if this is not obvious, we want to start the configuration early and want
to avoid unneeded delays when polling ready status. For 10 I would have
to use usleep_range() adding more delay.

no, it is more an arbitrary value. It was suggested to check for
error status after writing a data block and not after each data write
to speed-up the config process. The config images can be big (above
36 MiB) and often checking will slow down the configuration.

pci config space access works without enabling the pci device,
writing commands to config space enables the device first. It is done
some lines below which you deleted when commenting (please see original
patch).

I can't use pcim_enable_device(), it will make the driver unusable
on some platforms. The driver is only for re-configuring FPGAs and
there can be unlimited variations of different PCIe devices implemented
in FPGAs. Some of them have e.g. additional huge BARs (4GiB) for
which an address range cannot be assigned on embedded 32-bit
platforms. pcim_enable_device() will fail here complaining about
not claimed BAR, even if the concerned BAR is not needed for FPGA
configuration at all. This makes the driver unusable.
