Now that the driver core allows for struct class to be in read-only
memory, move the fpga_bridge_class structure to be declared at build
time placing it into read-only memory, instead of having to be
dynamically allocated at boot time.

Could we still use the forward declaration, to avoid moving too
much code block.

Insert them between __fpga_bridge_get() and of_fpga_bridge_get() is not
preferred. See below comments.

How about put the fpga_bridge_class definition here?

Hi Yilun,

Thank you for the review, I agree that forward declaration is better in this case. I'll send you the V2 after making suggested changes.
