My opinion: If there is a real product out in the field using this,
the DT for the product can be in mainline.

Reference Design Kits for ASICs are well supported in mainline. So the
question is, is an FPGA sufficiently different to an ASIC that is
should be treated differently? Do you have an off the shelf platform
or something custom? How easy is it to get the platform which is used
as an RDK? Can you make a bitstream available for anybody to use?
