/**
@publishedPartner

Defines a Deferred Function Call (DFC) or Immediate Deferred Function Call (IDFC).

A DFC is a kernel object that specifies a function to be run in a thread,
which is processing a DFC queue. A DFC is added to a DFC queue that is 
associated with a given thread, where it is cooperatively scheduled with other
DFCs on that queue.  Queued DFCs are run in order of their priority, followed
by the order they where queued.  When the DFC gets to run, the function is run
kernel side, and no other DFC in this queue will get to run until it 
completes. A DFC can be queued from any context.

An IDFC is run as soon as the scheduler is next run, which is during the IRQ
postamble if queued from an ISR; when the currently-running IDFC completes if
queued from an IDFC; or when the kernel is next unlocked if queued from thread
context.  Unlike a DFC, the IDFC is not run from a thread context, and its
execution time must be much smaller.  For these reasons, IDFCs are rarely used
directly, but are used for implementation of the kernel and RTOS personality
layers.  An important use of IDFCs is in the implementation of queuing DFCs from
an ISR context.  IDFCs are run with interrupts enabled but the kernel locked.
