Uniprocessor implementation of nested mutex problem of priority inversion.

[Saurabh Gadia]

That is how we were doing in JPF. The validate method was triggered after
every release of mutex by any thread and we would check for all the waiting
threads on mutex's held by the holder. And if it finds a thread with higher
priority blocked then it would panic or give assertion failure.

Thanks,

Saurabh Gadia
