DCHBK Prolog

 NAME       : HCPDCHBK
 DESCRIPTION: Diagnose Control Header
 DSECT      : DCHBK
 FUNCTION   : The Diagnose Control Header serializes use of the
              diagnose control block locator array, as well as
              locates the diagnose control block locator array.
 LOCATED BY : SYSCM.SYSDCHBK
 CREATED BY : HCPHVAIN
 DELETED BY : None.
 REFERENCES : None.
 SERIALIZED : The DCHBK is created during system initialization;
              no further serialization is required.
              The DCHLOCK is obtained exclusive in order to
              serialize additions to the array of addresses of
              DGNBKs.  Since an address in the array is never
              deleted, there is no conflict between searching and
              adding.  Therefore, there is no need to obtain the
              DCHLOCK for searching.
