It is optional for telling destination address of DDR where this
core.rbf going to be loaded. If load property, the default OCRAM buffer
would be used, bad for performance when loading chunk by chunk.

The ordering in configuration fpga property doesn't matter, the driver
smart enough to determine what bitstream need to be programmed at what
FPGA mode.

The image fpga-core at 1 is alligned at 1st just for avoiding 
the performance penalty.
