Also I should save a pointer to the device in  fpga_image_info so that
fpga_image_info_free() could lose the dev param.  I'd add this here:

get_device(dev);
info->dev = dev;

I'd get rid of the dev parameter.

dev = info->dev;

put_device(dev);

And fix all uses of this function to be fpga_image_info_free(info);
