Hi Hui Liu,
We very very rarely bother to call mutex_destroy(). The reason is
that it is only a non noop in when mutex debugging is enabled and
that is only useful if there is a plausible route in which it could
be used after the mutex_destroy. Given these are both at the ends
of removal paths, I don't think this is useful. That's why you will
rarely find mutex_destroy() being called.
Thanks,
Jonathan
