/* Most internal nxsem_* interfaces are not available in the user space in

* This is only important when compiling libraries (libc or libnx) that are

* One particularly important use of this function is when a semaphore

* TASK A TASK B
* sem_init(sem, 0, 0);
* sem_wait(sem);

*
* In this case priority inheritance can interfere with the operation of

* becomes *permanently* a holder of the semaphore and may have its
* priority boosted when any other task tries to acquire the semaphore.
*
* The fix is to call nxsem_set_protocol(SEM_PRIO_NONE) immediately after
* the sem_init() call so that there will be no priority inheritance
* operations on this semaphore.

* Input Parameters:
* sem - A pointer to the semaphore whose attributes are to be

* protocol - The new protocol to use
*
* Returned Value:
* This is an internal OS interface and should not be used by applications.
