Signature: (tags-search REGEXP &optional FILE-LIST-FORM)
 
Doc string:
 
 Search through all files listed in tags table for match for regexp.
 Stops when a match is found.
 To continue searching for next match, use command M-,.
 See documentation of variable `tags-file-name'.
 
The doc string needs to describe the arguments.
In particular, please describe the FILE-LIST-FORM argument.

I've now added:

If `file-list-form' is non-nil, it should be a form that, when
evaluated, will return a list of file names.  The search will be
restricted to these files.

Which I think is probably correct, looking at where this is being used.
