Subject: Re: [RFC PATCH v3 1/2] fpga: add an owner field and use it to take
the low-level module's refcount

Don't be so strict, people could pass in any owner module they think it
is correct.

No need the side note, people could call fpga_mgr_unregister() at any
time they think it is correct.

I appreciate that but don't put it in changelog. A Suggested-by is
appropriate.

Opportunistically move put_device() ...
The point is, try to imply the *Other* changes are simple and relative to
the main change, or we should split the patch.
Sorry but seeing the actual change, please split. The whole change is
small and the put_device() part contributes 40% code ...
Thanks,
