/** Mutex usage verification framework.
 *
 * The mutex usage verification code below aims to detect bad usage of
 * Mbed TLS's mutex abstraction layer at runtime. Note that this is solely
 * about the use of the mutex itself, not about checking whether the mutex
 * correctly protects whatever it is supposed to protect.
 *
 * The normal usage of a mutex is:
 * ```
 * digraph mutex_states {
 *   "UNINITIALIZED"; // the initial state
 *   "IDLE";
 *   "FREED";
 *   "LOCKED";
 *   "UNINITIALIZED" -> "IDLE" [label="init"];
 *   "FREED" -> "IDLE" [label="init"];
 *   "IDLE" -> "LOCKED" [label="lock"];
 *   "LOCKED" -> "IDLE" [label="unlock"];
 *   "IDLE" -> "FREED" [label="free"];
 * }
 * ```
 *
 * All bad transitions that can be unambiguously detected are reported.
 * An attempt to use an uninitialized mutex cannot be detected in general
 * since the memory content may happen to denote a valid state. For the same
 * reason, a double init cannot be detected.
 * All-bits-zero is the state of a freed mutex, which is distinct from an
 * initialized mutex, so attempting to use zero-initialized memory as a mutex
 * without calling the init function is detected.
 *
 * If an error is detected, this framework will report what happened and the
 * test case will be marked as failed. Unfortunately, the error report cannot
 * indicate the exact location of the problematic call. To locate the error,
 * use a debugger and set a breakpoint on mbedtls_test_mutex_usage_error().
