Interrogate/set error status on the device.

With this one can inquire which errors have arisen recently on the 
device. This is necessary as several programs may be working with this
device, and otherwise the one that reads the status with RequestSense 
would be the only one to know what has happened. Hence every program 
that evaluates RequestSense must report a corresponding error, so that
this is logged for all other processes with an open handle.

Everything must be reported that produces a status change of the 
device, such as Mediach und Reset. Only in this way can the hard disk 
driver get, say, a media-change message if the medium has been changed
during an image backup.

rwflag = 0 interrogates the status (16-bit bit-vector) and clears it 
for this handle. rwflag = 1 sets the bit ErrNo for all opened handles 
on this device.
