DosHlp Routines

In brief, which is all I can do, the os2ldr contains some hardware dependent routines call DosHlp routines. Thanks to Pasha for pointing out that the ddk contains doshlp.inc which lists most of these (base\inc).

The os2ldr contains a table of offsets that is passed to the kernel. The following is a structure I put together from this information and what I saw from a disassembled os2ldr (SMP v104a). The unknowns are not listed in the doshlp.inc.
