     NAME       : HCPUSXBK
     DESCRIPTION: User Security Extension Block
     DSECT      : USXBK
     FUNCTION   : The USXBK contains pointers to the block(s)
                  of storage containing the altered security flags for
                  a particular user, or zeroes, if no block exists for
                  that set of entities.
     LOCATED BY : VMDACIMP field of the VMDBK
     CREATED BY : HCPDA0
     DELETED BY : HCPDA0, HCPUSO, HCPLOG
     SERIALIZED : The SYSCM lock, SYSUSXLK
     RELOCATION CONSIDERATIONS : None
     NOTES      : This control block is bilingual.  The fields within it can
                  be referenced in either ASSEMBLER or PLAS modules.
                  The block of storage pointed to by each pointer field
                  in the USXBK consists of as many bytes as there are entries
                  in its corresponding data area.  For example, USXCP
                  would point to a block of storage containing as many
                  bytes as there are command table entries.  These
                  bytes have a one to one correspondence with the entries
                  in the command table.  IE the 5th byte contains the
                  extended security flags relative to the 5th command
                  defined within the command table.
