'/lib/firmware/netronome/flower' FW is loaded (automatically ?) by 
kernel driver, right?
Is there anything related to the DPDK with the name/path of the FW?


And I wonder if these kind of information should be part of driver

Why this assignment is required? Driver shouldn't need to update this 
bus related data struct.
