It's fine, but the description here is a little confusing on vendor/framework
handling. No other vendor so far, but it's possible, DFL can be used in 
non-intel device, and related drivers can be reused as well. Then a fpga 
mgr driver depends on DFL, should be put inside dfl folder or new
vendor's subfolder?
