Subject: [RFC PATCH] fpga: remove module reference counting from core components

Remove unnecessary module reference counting from the core components
of the subsystem. Low-level driver modules cannot be removed before
core modules since they use their exported symbols.

For more context, refer to this thread:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-fpga/ZS6hhlvjUcqyv8zL@yilunxu-OptiPlex-7050

Other changes:

In  __fpga_bridge_get(): do a (missing ?) get_device() and bind the
image to the bridge only after the mutex has been acquired.

In __fpga_mgr_get(): do a get_device(). Currently, get_device() is
called when allocating an image in fpga_image_info_alloc().
However, since there are still two (of_)fpga_mgr_get() functions
exposed by the core, I think they should behave as expected.

In fpga_region_get() / fpga_region_put(): call get_device() before
acquiring the mutex and put_device() after having released the mutex
to avoid races.

Fixes: 654ba4cc0f3e ("fpga manager: ensure lifetime with of_fpga_mgr_get")
