Ok, I will make update in the next submission.

No, Service layer driver need be compiled as part of kernel image.

Service layer driver provides services for service clients, it must be 
loaded & initialized before service clients (FPGA manager and remote 
status update drivers).

My mistake, I will fix in the next submission.

CONFIG_FPGA_MGR_STRATIX10_SOC could be module, but the remaining 
components need be compiled as part of kernel image.
