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
