    This driver only supports Intel FPGA devices (see PCI Device Ids table
    in this patch) as mentioned above now, per my current understanding, if
    other vendors follow the same hardware design on using DFL for their PCIe
    based devices, then it's possible for them to fully reuse this code,
    otherwise they need to develop new drivers for their own designs or extend
    this driver in some ways (it depends on actual hardware implementation).

    Thanks
