+ * Name: sched_garbagecollection
+ *
+ * Description:
+ * Clean-up memory de-allocations that we queued because they could not
+ * be freed in that execution context (for example, if the memory was freed
+ * from an interrupt handler).
+ *
+ * This logic may be called from the worker thread (see work_thread.c).
+ * If, however, CONFIG_SCHED_WORKQUEUE is not defined, then this logic will
+ * be called from the IDLE thread. It is less optimal for the garbage
+ * collection to be called from the IDLE thread because it runs at a very
+ * low priority and could cause false memory out conditions.
+ *
+ * Input parameters:
+ * None
+ *
+ * Returned Value:
+ * None
+ *
