It's a complex bit of code but I'm OK with it in principle. Everything
below is about small details and/or nitpicking.

A bit of commenting about why we have to wait 10ms before enabling the
OVP interrupt would be appreciated.

We're currently running the threaded ISR for this irq. Do we really need
to disable it?

Snip.

Have the irq handlers been disabled at this point?

Also, if you want to destroy the mutex shouldn't that code be 
introduced in the same patch that introduces the mutex?
