// Defines a checker for blocks in critical sections. This checker should find
// the calls to blocking functions (for example: sleep, getc, fgets, read,
// recv etc.) inside a critical section. When sleep(x) is called while a mutex
// is held, other threades cannot lock the same mutex. This might take some
// time, leading to bad performance or even deadlock.
