@par Application Description

How to use mutexes with CMSIS RTOS API.

This application creates three threads, with different priorities, that access the
same mutex, as described below:

MutexHighPriorityThread() has the highest priority so executes
first and grabs the mutex and sleeps for a short period to let the lower
priority threads execute. When it has completed its demo functionality
it gives the mutex back before suspending itself.
At that point, LED1 toggles.

MutexMediumPriorityThread() attempts to access the mutex by performing
a blocking 'wait'. This thread blocks when the mutex is already taken
by the high priority thread. It does not unblock until the highest
priority thread has released the mutex, and it does not actually run until
the highest priority thread has suspended itself.
When it eventually does obtain the mutex all it does is give the mutex back
prior to also suspending itself.
At this point both the high and medium priority threads are suspended and LED2 toggles.

MutexLowPriorityThread() runs at the idle priority. It spins round
a tight loop attempting to obtain the mutex with a non-blocking call. As
the lowest priority thread it will not successfully obtain the mutex until
both high and medium priority threads are suspended. Once it eventually
does obtains the mutex, it first resumes both suspended threads prior to giving the mutex back,
resulting in the low priority thread temporarily inheriting the highest thread priority.

Add the following variables to LiveWatch, the difference between these values must not
exceeds 1:
- HighPriorityThreadCycles
- MediumPriorityThreadCycles
- LowPriorityThreadCycles

STM32 NUCLEO boards LEDs can be used to monitor the application status:
- LED1, LED2 should toggle when the application runs successfully.
- LED3 toggles when any error occurs.

@note Care must be taken when using HAL_Delay(), this function provides accurate
delay (in milliseconds) based on variable incremented in HAL time base ISR.
This implies that if HAL_Delay() is called from a peripheral ISR process, then
the HAL time base interrupt must have higher priority (numerically lower) than
the peripheral interrupt. Otherwise the caller ISR process will be blocked.
To change the HAL time base interrupt priority you have to use HAL_NVIC_SetPriority()
function.

@note The application needs to ensure that the HAL time base is always set to 1 millisecond
to have correct HAL operation.

@note The FreeRTOS heap size configTOTAL_HEAP_SIZE defined in FreeRTOSConfig.h is set accordingly to the
OS resources memory requirements of the application with +10% margin and rounded to the upper Kbyte boundary.

@par Hardware and Software environment

- This application runs on STM32F413xx/STM32F423xx devices.

- This application has been tested with STM32F413ZH-Nucleo board and can be
easily tailored to any other supported device and development board.

@par How to use it ?

In order to make the program work, you must do the following:
