Yes, I agree this flags should not be a vendor specific we should make it as generic.
can we have flags something like below .
1) authenticated-fpga-config --> By default it uses kernel memory(DDR) to authenticate the image(FPGA_MGR_MEM_AUTH_BITSTREAM)
2) authenticated-onchip-fpga-config --> It uses the On chip memory to authenticate the image ( FPGA_MGR_AUTH_ON_CHIP_BITSTREAM)

if you have any other thoughts let me know will try to adopt the same...

Navakishore.
