  /* Proof of correctness:
     * num_threads is incremented and then decremented by some threads.
       Therefore, num_threads always stays >= 0, and is == 0 at the end.
     * The 'done' word, once > 0, stays > 0 (since it is never assigned 0).
     * The 'done' word is changed from == 0 to > 0 only while the lock
       is taken. Therefore, only the first thread that succeeds in taking
       the lock executes the initfunction and sets the 'done' word to a
       value > 0; the other threads that take the lock do no side effects
       between taking and releasing the lock.
     * The 'done' word does not change any more once it is 2.
       Therefore, it can be changed from 1 to 2 only once.
     * pthread_mutex_destroy gets invoked right after 'done' has been changed
       from 1 to 2.  Therefore, pthread_mutex_destroy gets invoked only once.
     * After a moment where num_threads was 0 and done was > 0, no thread can
       reach the pthread_mutex_lock invocation. Proof:
       - At such a moment, no thread is in the code range between
           state_p->num_threads += 1
         and
           state_p->num_threads -= 1
       - After such a moment, some thread can increment num_threads, but from
         there they cannot reach the pthread_mutex_lock invocation, because the
           if (state_p->done == 0)
         test prevents that.
     * From this it follows that:
       - pthread_mutex_destroy cannot be executed while the lock is taken
         (because pthread_mutex_destroy is only executed after a moment where
         num_threads was 0 and done was > 0).
       - Once pthread_mutex_destroy has been executed, the lock is not used any
         more.
