* OS TICK INTERRUPT PRIORITY CONFIGURATION
*
* Note(s) : (1) For systems that don't need any high, real-time priority interrupts; the tick interrupt
* should be configured as the highest priority interrupt but won't adversely affect system
* operations.
*
* (2) For systems that need one or more high, real-time interrupts; these should be configured
* higher than the tick interrupt which MAY delay execution of the tick interrupt.
*
* (a) If the higher priority interrupts do NOT continually consume CPU cycles but only
* occasionally delay tick interrupts, then the real-time interrupts can successfully
* handle their intermittent/periodic events with the system not losing tick interrupts
* but only increasing the jitter.
*
* (b) If the higher priority interrupts consume enough CPU cycles to continually delay the
* tick interrupt, then the CPU/system is most likely over-burdened & can't be expected
* to handle all its interrupts/tasks. The system time reference gets compromised as a
* result of losing tick interrupts.
