Function 000A - Create Alias Descriptor

PMODE/W API

This function Creates a new data descriptor that has the same base and limit as the specified descriptor.

In:
   AX     = 000ah
   BX     = selector
Out:
   if successful:
     carry flag clear
     AX     = data selector (alias)
   if failed:

The selector supplied to the function may be either a data descriptor or a code descriptor. The alias descriptor created is always an expand-up writeable data segment.

The descriptor alias returned by this function will not track changes to the original descriptor.
