There is a rc but a check here is not required.

There are three cases:

a) This is the first ISC that gets registered, then the GISA is
not in use and IAM is set in the GISA.

b) A second ISC gets registered and the GISA is *not* in the
alert list. Then the IAM is set here as well.

c) A second ISC gets registered and the GISA is in the
alert list. Then the IAM is intentionally not set here
by set_iam(). It will be restored by get_ipm() with
the new IAM value by the gib alert processing code.

It is the same here.
