with header_size and data_size fields of struct fpga_image_info.

 The programming sequence is::

+The .parse_header function will set header_size and data_size to
+struct fpga_image_info. If header_size is set, .write function will get image
+buffer starting at header_size offset from the beginning. If data_size is set,
+.write function will get data_size bytes of the image buffer, otherwise .write
+will get data up to the end of image buffer. This will not affect .write_sg,
+.write_sg will still get whole image in sg_table form. If FPGA image is a
+single contiguous buffer, whole buffer will be passed into .parse_header.
+If image is in scatter-gather form, core code will buffer up at least
+.initial_header_size before the first call of .parse_header, if it is not
+enough, .parse_header should set desired size into info->header_size and
+return -EAGAIN, then it will be called again with greater part of image buffer
+on the input.

 The .write function writes a buffer to the FPGA. The buffer may be contain the
 whole FPGA image or may be a smaller chunk of an FPGA image.  In the latter
