* Name: 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 nxsem_wait().
*
* Input Parameters:
* sem - Semaphore descriptor
*
* Returned Value:
* This function is a standard, POSIX application interface. It will
* return zero (OK) if successful. Otherwise, -1 (ERROR) is returned and
* the errno value is set appropriately.
*
* Assumptions:
* This function may be called from an interrupt handler.
*
