                  RSPBK chains) and locks.
     LOCATED BY : SYSPRTT field in SYSCM
                  SYSPUNT field in SYSCM
                  SYSRDRT field in SYSCM

           Notes      : There will be three versions of the RSHBK present on
                 any system.  One will represent the head of the reader
                 RSPBKs, one will represent the head of the printer
                 RSPBKs and one will represent the head of the punch
                 RSPBKs.  They will be anchored in SYSCM at SYSRDRT,
                 SYSPRTT and SYSPUNT, respectively.
                 No attempt should be made to acquire the lock
                 represented by RSHLOCK while an RDEV lock is held.
                 Furthermore, if more than one of these locks needs
                 to be acquired, they should be acquired in the order
                 of reader, printer and punch and released in the
                 oppposite order to prevent possible dead-locks.
                 These locks may be acquired by threads that are holding
                 an RDEV lock.
