No need to test owner == NULL, try_module_get() does this.

Why this part should be protected rather than the whole
fpga_mgr_unregister()?

I feel the scope of the protection is unclear to me in this patch. What
data should be protected from concurrent access by this mutex? From the
code seems the racing of mgr dev should be protected but apparently it
doesn't have to.

And with this mutex, the get/put/unregister() for one mgr should be
exclusive with another mgr, but that also seems not necessary.

I think the mgr->owner & mgr->ops should be protected from concurrent
access of delete_module & fpga_mgr_get/put(), so how about:

struct fpga_manager_ops {
	struct module *owner;
	...
};

struct fpga_manager {
	...
	struct mutex mops_lock;
	const struct fpga_manager_ops *mops;
	...
};


static struct fpga_manager *__fpga_mgr_get(struct device *dev)
{
	struct fpga_manager *mgr;

	mgr = to_fpga_manager(dev);

	mutex_lock(&mgr->mops_lock);

	if (!mgr->mops || !try_module_get(mgr->mops->owner))
		mgr = ERR_PTR(-ENODEV);

	mutex_unlock(&mgr->mops_lock);
		
	return mgr;
}

void fpga_mgr_unregister(struct fpga_manager *mgr)
{
	fpga_mgr_fpga_remove(mgr);	

	mutex_lock(&mgr->ops_lock);
	mgr->mops = NULL;
	mutex_unlock(&mgr->ops_lock);

	device_unregister(&mgr->dev);	
}

Not actually tested.
