LKWRD Prolog

 Name       : HCPLKWRD
 Description: Defer-lock "lockword"
 DSECT      : LKWRD
 Function   : The lockword the means of serializing
              deferrable requests for access to a group of
              data by different tasks.
 Located by : Various lockwords to protect specific classes
              of data exist inside other control blocks
              and data areas (VMDBK, SYSCM, HCPRCC, etc.)
 Created by : none (lockwords are static, or are "created"
              within other dynamically created blocks
              e.g., the VMDBK).
 Deleted by : none (lockwords are static, or are "deleted"
              within other dynamically deleted blocks.

     The following re-definition of LKWSTATE allows addressability to the
     last byte to check for a lockword held exclusive. This is NOT intended
     for general use: it is used by HCPWAI (Active Wait) for a specific
     purpose and may NOT be accurate for all locks. See the prologue of
     HCPLCK for a complete description of LKWSTATE.
