I have written very similar driver some week ago but didn't sent it out.

Here it is.
https://github.com/Xilinx/linux-xlnx/blob/master/drivers/fpga/xilinx-pr-decoupler.c

Your clk handling is better and my enable_show is better.
You shouldn't rely on setting status before. It is better to read that
reg again. The reason is you can connect status signal from one PR
decoupler to decouple input which can change status

There is another topic I wanted to open in connection to this. There
should be gpio based bridge because this pr decoupler can be without axi
interface and for that gpio driver would be useful.

Thanks,
Michal
