 *    TNeoKernel was born as a thorough review and re-implementation of
 *    TNKernel. The new kernel has well-formed code, inherited bugs are fixed
 *    as well as new features being added, and it is tested carefully with
 *    unit-tests.
 *
 *    API is changed somewhat, so it's not 100% compatible with TNKernel,
 *    hence the new name: TNeoKernel.

 * Fixed memory blocks pool.
 *
 * A fixed-sized memory blocks pool is used for managing fixed-sized memory
 * blocks dynamically. A pool has a memory area where fixed-sized memory blocks
 * are allocated and the wait queue for acquiring a memory block.  If there are
 * no free memory blocks, a task trying to acquire a memory block will be
 * placed into the wait queue until a free memory block arrives (another task
 * returns it to the memory pool).

/**
 * Construct fixed memory blocks pool. `id_fmp` field should not contain

 *
 * Note that `start_addr` and `block_size` should be a multiple of
 * `sizeof(#TN_UWord)`.
 *
 * For the definition of buffer, convenience macro `TN_FMEM_BUF_DEF()` was
 * invented.
 *
 * Typical definition looks as follows:
 *
 * \code{.c}
 *     //-- number of blocks in the pool
 *     #define MY_MEMORY_BUF_SIZE    8
 *
 *     //-- type for memory block
 *     struct MyMemoryItem {
 *        // ... arbitrary fields ...
 *     };
 *     
 *     //-- define buffer for memory pool
 *     TN_FMEM_BUF_DEF(my_fmem_buf, struct MyMemoryItem, MY_MEMORY_BUF_SIZE);
 *
 *     //-- define memory pool structure
 *     struct TN_FMem my_fmem;
 * \endcode
 *
 * And then, construct your `my_fmem` as follows:
 *
 * \code{.c}
 *     enum TN_RCode rc;
 *     rc = tn_fmem_create( &my_fmem,
 *                          my_fmem_buf,

 *                          MY_MEMORY_BUF_SIZE );
 *     if (rc != TN_RC_OK){
 *        //-- handle error
 *     }
 * \endcode
 *
 * If given `start_addr` and/or `block_size` aren't aligned properly,
 * `#TN_RC_WPARAM` is returned.
 *
 * $(TN_CALL_FROM_TASK)
 * $(TN_CALL_FROM_ISR)
 * $(TN_LEGEND_LINK)
 *
 * @param fmem       pointer to already allocated `struct TN_FMem`.
 * @param start_addr pointer to start of the array; should be aligned properly,
 *                   see example above
 * @param block_size size of memory block; should be a multiple of 
 *                   `sizeof(#TN_UWord)`, see example above
 * @param blocks_cnt capacity (total number of blocks in the memory pool)
 *
 * @return 
 *    * `#TN_RC_OK` if memory pool was successfully created;
 *    * If `#TN_CHECK_PARAM` is non-zero, additional return code
 *      is available: `#TN_RC_WPARAM`.
