Memory Managers - GET EMM IMPORT STRUCTURE ADDRESS

AX = 4402h subfn 01h
BX = file handle for device "EMMXXXX0"
CX = 0006h (size of buffer in bytes)
DS:DX -> buffer for EMM import structure record (see #01514)
first byte must be 01h on entry

Return:
CF clear if successful buffer filled (see also #03603 at INT 67/AH=3Fh) CF set on error AX = error code (01h,05h,06h,0Dh) (see #01680 at AH=59h/BX=0000h)

Notes: This function is supported by Microsoft EMM386.EXE v4.45+, QEMM-386 v6+, and CEMM v5.10+, and is intended for use by MS Windows as it starts up. For QEMM-386, this call always returns an error if Windows3 support has been disabled with the NW3 switch
