	AH = 31h
	AL = return code
	DX = number of paragraphs to keep resident
Return: never
Notes:	the value in DX only affects the memory block containing the PSP;
	  additional memory allocated via AH=48h is not affected
	the minimum number of paragraphs which will remain resident is 11h
	  for DOS 2.x and 06h for DOS 3.0+
	most TSRs can save some memory by releasing their environment block
	  before terminating (see <a href=../../it/78/13.html>#01378</a> at AH=26h,AH=49h)
	any open files remain open, so one should close any files which will
	  not be used before going resident; to access a file which is left
	  open from the TSR, one must switch PSP segments first (see AH=50h)
