+		Valid states may vary by manufacturer; superset is:
+		* unknown		= can't determine state
+		* power_off		= FPGA power is off
+		* power_up		= FPGA reports power is up
+		* reset			= FPGA held in reset state
+		* firmware_request	= firmware class request in progress
+		* firmware_request_err	= firmware request failed
+		* write_init		= FPGA being prepared for programming
+		* write_init_err	= Error while preparing FPGA for
+					  programming
+		* write			= FPGA ready to receive image data
+		* write_err		= Error while programming
+		* write_complete	= Doing post programming steps
+		* write_complete_err	= Error while doing post programming
+		* operating		= FPGA is programmed and operating
