 * Function: sem_destroy
 *
 * Description:
 *   This function is used to destroy the un-named semaphore indicated by
 *   'sem'.  Only a semaphore that was created using sem_init() may be
 *   destroyed using sem_destroy(); the effect of calling sem_destroy() with
 *   a named semaphore is undefined.  The effect of subsequent use of the
 *   semaphore sem is undefined until sem is re-initialized by another call
 *   to sem_init().
 *
 *   The effect of destroying a semaphore upon which other processes are
 *   currently blocked is undefined.
 *
 * Parameters:
 *   sem - Semaphore to be destroyed.
 *
 * Return Value:
 *   0 (OK), or -1 (ERROR) if unsuccessful.
 *
 * Assumptions:
 *
