user specific interruption parameter; will be presented back to
cdev's interrupt handler. Allows a device driver to associate
the interrupt with a particular I/O request.
lpmdefines the channel path to be used for a specific I/O request. A value of 0 will make cio use the opm.

expirestimeout value in jiffies
Start a S/390 channel program. When the interrupt arrives, the
IRQ handler is called, either immediately, delayed (dev-end missing,
or sense required) or never (no IRQ handler registered).
This function notifies the device driver if the channel program has not
completed during the time specified by expires. If a timeout occurs, the
channel program is terminated via xsch, hsch or csch, and the device's
interrupt handler will be called with an irb containing ERR_PTR(-ETIMEDOUT).
