Subject: [PATCH 1/3] fpga: region: don't use drvdata in common fpga code

Part of patchset that changes the following fpga_*_register
functions to not set drvdata:
* fpga_region_register.
* fpga_mgr_register
* fpga_bridge_register

The rationale is that setting drvdata is fine for DT based devices
that will have one manager, bridge, or region per platform device.
However PCIe based devices may have multiple FPGA mgr/bridge/regions
under one PCIe device.  Without these changes, the PCIe solution has
to create an extra device for each child mgr/bridge/region to hold
drvdata.
