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