     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.
     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.
