xilinx_hwicap driver problems

[Stephen Neuendorffer]

OK, that's progress.  The next thing I'd check is that you are *not*
using the JTAG configuration mode, as this disables the ICAP.  You can
also try turning on the DEBUG flags in the driver itself.  During open()
the driver attempts to read the IDCODE from the hwicap to get it back to
an initial state.
