 NAME       : HCPLATBK
 DESCRIPTION: C System Services Latch block
 DSECT      : LATBK
 FUNCTION   : C System Services Latch block used to describe the
              suspend lock used by platform specific C Services
 LOCATED BY : Passed as argument on latch, unlatch, testLatch
              and eventWait services
 CREATED BY : allocateLatch service
 DELETED BY : deallocateLatch service
 SERIALIZED : None
 RELOCATION CONSIDERATIONS : None
 NOTES      : This COPY file is modeled after HCPLKWRD so
              existing CP lock routines could be utilized.
