When realloc up from a mem area to a larger one where a new node
is needed. The the larger memory region is copied from the source
this can both leak data as well as cause memory faults accesssing
invalid data.

* Simplify EINTR/ECANCEL error handling
1. Add semaphore uninterruptible wait function
2 .Replace semaphore wait loop with a single uninterruptible wait
3. Replace all sem_xxx to nxsem_xxx
* Unify the void cast usage
1. Remove void cast for function because many place ignore the returned value witout cast
2. Replace void cast for variable with UNUSED macro
This commit repartitions the logic by moving some of the changes from mm_sem.c into task_getpid.c. The logic is equivalent for the case of mm_trysemaphore(), but no has wider impact since it potentially affects all callers of getpid(). Hence, this change may also introduce some other issues that will need to be addressed.
This change adds a check to mm_trysemaphore() (the root implementation of both kmm_trysemaphore() and umm_trysemaphore()). It checks if the that task that is apparently executing is marked as RUNNING. If not, how could the non-running task be trying to get the MM semaphore? I think only in the exact scenario that Eunbong Song has described.
So I think the solution should provide the same protection as 91aa26774b but without the horrific consequences to memory usage.

* NuttX: make strerror() return 'Success' for 0
* NuttX: fix strrchr() so that it considers null terminator as part of string
From strrchr(3) man page:
"The terminating null byte is considered part of the string, so that if c
is specified as '\0', these functions return a pointer to the terminator."
* NuttX: mm_free(): Add DEBUGASSERT()'s to catch memory corruption early.
It's easier to find the source when asserts fail already when freeing
an overflowed buffer, than if the corruption is only detected on next
malloc().
* MM_FILL_ALLOCATIONS: Add debug option to fill all mallocs()
This is helpful for detecting uninitialized variables,
especially in C++ code. I seem to be forgetting to initialize
member variables and then they just get random values..
* NuttX: nxtk_bitmapwindow: Fix warning message when bitmap is fully off-screen.
* nxfonts_getfont: Avoid unnecessary warnings for other whitespace chars also.
* NuttX: Fix kerning of 'I' in Sans17x22 font
The I character was running together with some other
characters, e.g. in sequence "IMI".
* NXMU: Revalidate window pointer for mouse events.
NXMU caches the previous window pointer so that further mouse
events can be sent to the same window. However, if the window
is destroyed while mouse button is held down, the pointer may
become invalid and cause a crash. This patch revalidates the
pointer before using it.

Fix SMP related bugs
* sched/sched: Fix a deadlock in SMP mode
Two months ago, I introduced sched_tasklist_lock() and
sched_tasklist_unlock() to protect tasklists in SMP mode.
Actually, this change works pretty well for HTTP audio
streaming aging test with lc823450-xgevk.
However, I found a deadlock in the scheduler when I tried
similar aging tests with DVFS autonomous mode where CPU
clock speed changed based on cpu load. In this case, call
sequences were as follows;
cpu1: sched_unlock()->sched_mergepending()->sched_addreadytorun()->up_cpu_pause()
cpu0: sched_lock()->sched_mergepending()
To avoid this deadlock, I added sched_tasklist_unlock() when calling
up_cpu_pause() and sched_addreadytorun(). Also, added
sched_tasklist_lock() after the call.
