This looks good, but not all users of FPGA are going to use compat_id.
How would you feel about making it a pointer in struct fpga_region?
With compat_id as a pointer, could check for non-null compat_id
pointer and return an error if it wasn't initialized.

I guess each user will choose how to define these bits.

Here it would be a pointer instead.
