Re: [PATCH v2 2/3] fpga: fpga-mgr: make fpga_mgr_class a static const structure

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

And I forgot the changelog here.

V1 -> V2:
- Add forward declaration of fpga_mgr_class
- Move definition of fpga_mgr_class to more logical place
