RE: ituAlarmGenericModel is redundant?

Hi

The following is the proposed resolution to Randy-68  Assuming no 
objection, this item will be considered closed conditional on the 
proposed edit being done.

In the description of ituAlarmGenericModel 
      "This object points to the corresponding
      row in the alarmModelTable for this alarm severity."

With
      "This object points to the corresponding
      row in the alarmModelTable for this alarm severity.

      This corresponding entry to alarmModelTable could also
      be derived by performing the reverse of the mapping
      from alarmModelState to ituAlarmPerceivedSeverity defined 
      in the description of ituAlarmEntry to determine the 
      appropriate { alarmListName, alarmModelIndex, alarmModelState }
      for this { alarmListName, alarmModelIndex,

It'd be very difficult to define an extension model without a clear state, since that
notion is built into both the alarmModelTable and the alarmClearTable.  Anyway,
in a case like this, where there would be entries in both extension tables,
to which one would the alarmModelSpecificPointer point?
