REQBK Prolog

 NAME       : HCPREQBK
 DESCRIPTION: Request block
 DSECT      : REQBK
 FUNCTION   : This DSECT maps each entry in a list of
              unique requests.
 LOCATED BY : Dependent on the function using this
              generic control block.
 CREATED BY : Dependent on the function using this
              generic control block.
 DELETED BY : Dependent on the function using this
              generic control block.
 SERIALIZED : Request block chain lock defined by the
              function.
 RELOCATION CONSIDERATIONS : None
 COMMENTS   : This control block is defined to be a
              generic control block for functions that
              need to manage requests. For example, it
              can be used to match a request and its
              asynchronous response.
              This block should be used in conjunction
              with the HCPREQST macro, which manages a
              queue of REQBKs.
