/**
 * @brief State associated with notification for an asynchronous
 * operation.
 *
 * Objects of this type are allocated by a client, which must use an
 * initialization function (e.g. sys_notify_init_signal()) to
 * configure them.  Generally the structure is a member of a
 * service-specific client structure, such as onoff_client.
 *
 * Control of the containing object transfers to the service provider
 * when a pointer to the object is passed to a service function that
 * is documented to take control of the object, such as
 * onoff_service_request().  While the service provider controls the
 * object the client must not change any object fields.  Control
 * reverts to the client:
 * * if the call to the service API returns an error;
 * * when operation completion is posted.  This may occur before the
 *   call to the service API returns.
 *
 * Operation completion is technically posted when the flags field is
 * updated so that sys_notify_fetch_result() returns success.  This
 * will happen before the signal is posted or callback is invoked.
 * Note that although the manager will no longer reference the
 * sys_notify object past this point, the containing object may have
 * state that will be referenced within the callback.  Where callbacks
 * are used control of the containing object does not revert to the
 * client until the callback has been invoked.  (Re-use within the
 * callback is explicitly permitted.)
 *
 * After control has reverted to the client the notify object must be
 * reinitialized for the next operation.
 *
 * The content of this structure is not public API to clients: all
 * configuration and inspection should be done with functions like
 * sys_notify_init_callback() and sys_notify_fetch_result().
 * However, services that use this structure may access certain
 * fields directly.
