CAABK Prolog

 NAME       : HCPCAABK
 DESCRIPTION: CP-use Address space Allocation block
 DSECT      : CAABK
 FUNCTION   : Allocation of virtual addresses in CP-use
              address spaces
 LOCATED BY : ASCTYPTR field of ASCBK
 CREATED BY : Creation of a HCPHAM-managed address space, either
              by HCPASMCR or its callers.
 DELETED BY : Never deleted.
 SERIALIZED :
              All fields except reorganization fields serialized
              by CAALOCK held exclusive.  ASCLOCK in the ASCBK for
              this address space must be held shared when obtain-
              CAALOCK.  If ASCLOCK is held exclusive, CAALOCK need
              not be held.

                                        (CAAHIWTR). The PGMBK FRMTE(s) on
                                        this chain are sorted in
                                        ascending virtual address order.
                                        A CAAAVAIL of zeros indicates an
                                        empty chain. This chain is ended
                                        by a fullword of zeros in
                                        FRMFPNTG. Hold CAALOCK or ASCLOCK

                                        CAAAVAIL. CAAHIWTR never points
                                        at an allocated page. No pages
                                        above CAAHIWTR are ever allocated
