Subject: Re: [PATCH] fpga: dfl: improve configuration of dfl pci devices

I think maybe we don't have to select them all. It is now possible for
FPGA DFL boards to work without FME or AFU, providing limited
functionality. It is possible designers trim the bitstream for their
purpose, and also need a smaller driver set.

I think we may add "default FPGA_DFL" for FPGA_DFL_FME,
FPGA_DFL_FME_MGR and others to make life easier.

How do you think?
