Sure, I will provide a brief description on AP queue.

Yes, it is. Current architecture limit is 256 (0-255) for domains.

The address schema of domains was created in linux on z, with a future 
architectural change in mind.

I will add the below comment

/* The sysfs path would be in the format /sys/bus/ap/devices/xx.yyyy, 
where xx is ap adapter id and yyyy is ap domain id. 
eg:/sys/bus/ap/devices/08.0001 */
