BPX4TAF (MVSThreadAffinity) example

The following code executes the assembler routine EXITRTN on another thread, identified by thread ID THID, and passes EXITPARM as input in R1. The requesting thread is blocked until EXITRTN runs. For the callable service, see MVSThreadAffinity (BPX1TAF, BPX4TAF) — MVS thread affinity service.
