Subject: Re: [PATCH V3 XRT Alveo 01/18] Documentation: fpga: Add a document
describing XRT Alveo drivers
>From the documentation, there are a couple of big questions and a bunch of word smithing.
pseudo-bus : do we need a bus ?
xrt-lib real platform devices that aren't fpga, do they need to move to another subsystem ?
Overall looks good, love the ascii art!

drivers in fpga/ should be for managing just the fpganess of the fpga.
soft devices ex/ a soft tty should go to their respective subsystem location

The connection of a 'group' node to a fpga region region is fairly important, maybe move this section earlier. 'group' as an fpganess thing would be kept in fpga/ subsystem.

Maybe a split is pseudo device leaves, those without real IO mem, stay in fpga/ others go ?
