I read "cloned" to mean: copied across, quite likely with no real
knowledge of exactly what bit does what and quite possibly without any
documentation of the bits concerned.

If I got it essentially right then as I said you need to ask the
person(s) who created the original file i.e. in the project it came
from.

Your best bet is probably to compare the file that's in OpenOCD with the
original file, to see if there's evidence that the OpenOCD version has
extra information which supports your hope/claim that the "author"
(cloner) knows in-depth about the special bits.  My expectation is that
when you compare the files you'll find "cloned" means that no such extra
knowledge was meant.  And then you can go to the other project.

Summary: apparently you want to know something very specific that's not
readily available in easily-obtained documentation, so you'll have to
put in the work and hunt hard for what you want to know.
