/************************************************************
 * Function:  sem_post
 *
 * Description:
 *   When a task has finished with a semaphore, it will call
 *   sem_post().  This function unlocks the semaphore
 *   referenced by sem by performing the semaphore unlock
 *   operation on that semaphore.
 *
 *   If the semaphore value resulting from this operation
 *   is positive, then no tasks were blocked waiting for the
 *   semaphore to become unlocked; the semaphore is simply
 *   incremented.
 *
 *   If the value of the semaphore resulting from this
 *   operation is zero, then one of the tasks blocked
 *   waiting for the semaphore shall be allowed to return
 *   successfully from its call to sem_wait().
 *
 * Parameters:
 *   sem - Semaphore descriptor
 *
 * Return Value:
 *   0 (OK) or -1 (ERROR) if unsuccessful
 *
 * Assumptions:
 *   This function cannot be called from an interrupt handler.
 *   It assumes the currently executing task is the one that
 *   is performing the unlock.
 *
