LTORG Instruction
| LOCTR name is also a control section name, the value assigned is that of the
| origin of the control section. So a LOCTR with the same name as the CSECT will
| resume the first location counter within the CSECT. A CSECT instruction will
| resume the last location counter used.

Resumes assembling with the first location counter of that section
If the LOCTR name was previously declared, resumes assembling with
the location counter of that LOCTR group
If the LOCTR name was not previously declared, begins processing a
new LOCTR group of statements to be assembled following the most
recently processed section or LOCTR group

LTORG Instruction
Use the LTORG instruction so that the assembler can collect and assemble literals
into a literal pool. A literal pool contains the literals you specify in a source module
either after the preceding LTORG instruction, or after the beginning of the source
module.
If a control section has not been established, LTORG will initiate an unnamed
(private) control section.
