+Description:
+		The misc device files /dev/jtag* are the interface
+		between JTAG master interface and userspace.
+
+		The ioctl(2)-based ABI is defined and documented in
+		[include/uapi]<linux/jtag.h>.
+
+		The following file operations are supported:
+
+		open(2)
+		The argument flag currently support only one access
+		mode O_RDWR.
Your open call tests for nothing, don't worry about it here at all :)
+
+		ioctl(2)
+		Initiate various actions.
+		See the inline documentation in [include/uapi]<linux/jtag.h>
+		for descriptions of all ioctls.
+
+		close(2)
+		Stops and free up the I/O contexts that was associated
+		with the file descriptor.
No, your close() does not do any of that.
+
+Users:		TBD
No users?  They why do we have this api at all?
+open(), close()
+-------
+open() opens JTAG device. Only one open operation per JTAG device
+can be performed. Two or more open for one device will return error.
Not true :)
+
+Open/Close  device:
+- jtag_fd = open("/dev/jtag0", O_RDWR);
+- close(jtag_fd);
+
+ioctl()
+-------
+All access operations to JTAG devices are erformed through ioctl interface.
+The IOCTL interface supports these requests:
+	JTAG_IOCRUNTEST - Force JTAG state machine to RUN_TEST/IDLE state
+	JTAG_SIOCFREQ - Set JTAG TCK frequency
+	JTAG_GIOCFREQ - Get JTAG TCK frequency
+	JTAG_IOCXFER - send JTAG data Xfer
+	JTAG_GIOCSTATUS - get current JTAG TAP status
+	JTAG_SIOCMODE - set JTAG mode flags.
+
+JTAG_SIOCFREQ, JTAG_GIOCFREQ
+------
+Set/Get JTAG clock speed:
+
+	unsigned int jtag_fd;
+	ioctl(jtag_fd, JTAG_SIOCFREQ, &frq);
+	ioctl(jtag_fd, JTAG_GIOCFREQ, &frq);
+
+JTAG_IOCRUNTEST
+------
+Force JTAG state machine to RUN_TEST/IDLE state
+
+struct jtag_run_test_idle {
+	__u8	reset;
+	__u8	endstate;
+	__u8	tck;
+};
+
+reset: 0 - run IDLE/PAUSE from current state
+	   1 - go through TEST_LOGIC/RESET state before IDLE/PAUSE
Are you sure your enums are these values?  You should explicitly set
them in your .h file to be positive.
