Change [1] introduced a regression that results in comparison
in arm_jtag_set_instr() to be always true if the length of the
IR register is not 8 bit. The value on the left side
of the != operator contains only tap->ir_length number of
bits while value on the right is full 8-bit instruction code.
This forces OpenOCD to update the JTAG IR register on each
transaction even if the instruction in the JTAG IR register
is correct. This causes noticeable performance degradation,
especially with slow JTAG adapters.
