/* HGCM uses worker threads, which process messages from other threads.
 * A message consists of the message header and message specific data.
 * Message header is opaque for callers, but message data is defined
 * and used by them.
 *
 * Messages are distinguished by message identifier and worker thread
 * they are allocated for.
 *
 * Messages are allocated for a worker thread and belong to
 * the thread. A worker thread holds the queue of messages.
 *
 * The calling thread creates a message, specifying which worker thread
 * the message is created for, then, optionally, initializes message
 * specific data and, also optionally, references the message.
 *
 * Message then is posted or sent to worker thread by inserting
 * it to the worker thread message queue and referencing the message.
 * Worker thread then again may fetch next message.
 *
 * Upon processing the message the worker thread dereferences it.
 * Dereferencing also automatically deletes message from the thread
 * queue and frees memory allocated for the message, if no more
 * references left. If there are references, the message remains
 * in the queue.
 *
