  20 * Simple, straightforward mutexes with strict semantics:
  21 *
  22 * - only one task can hold the mutex at a time
  23 * - only the owner can unlock the mutex
  24 * - multiple unlocks are not permitted
  25 * - recursive locking is not permitted
  26 * - a mutex object must be initialized via the API
  27 * - a mutex object must not be initialized via memset or copying
  28 * - task may not exit with mutex held
  29 * - memory areas where held locks reside must not be freed
  30 * - held mutexes must not be reinitialized
  31 * - mutexes may not be used in irq contexts
  32 *
  33 * These semantics are fully enforced when DEBUG_MUTEXES is
  34 * enabled. Furthermore, besides enforcing the above rules, the mutex
  35 * debugging code also implements a number of additional features
  36 * that make lock debugging easier and faster:
  37 *
  38 * - uses symbolic names of mutexes, whenever they are printed in debug output
  39 * - point-of-acquire tracking, symbolic lookup of function names
  40 * - list of all locks held in the system, printout of them
  41 * - owner tracking
  42 * - detects self-recursing locks and prints out all relevant info
  43 * - detects multi-task circular deadlocks and prints out all affected
  44 *   locks and tasks (and only those tasks)
