  \brief vos_timer_init() - Initialize a vOSS timer.

  This API initializes a vOS Timer object. 
  
  The \a vos_timer_init() initializes a vOS Timer object.  A timer must be 
  initialized by calling vos_timer_initialize() before it may be used in 
  any other timer functions. 
  
  Attempting to initialize timer that is already initialized results in 
  a failure. A destroyed timer object can be re-initialized with a call to
  \a vos_timer_init().  The results of otherwise referencing the object 
  after it has been destroyed are undefined.  
  
  Calls to vOSS timer functions to manipulate the timer such
  as vos_timer_set() will fail if the timer is not initialized or has
  been destroyed.  Therefore, don't use the timer after it has been 
  destroyed until it has been re-initialized.
  
  All callback will be executed within the VOS main thread unless it is 
  initialized from the Tx thread flow, in which case it will be executed
  within the tx thread flow.
  
  \param timer - pointer to the opaque timer object to initialize
  
  \param timerType - specifies the type of timer.  We have two different
                     timer types.

           may not be awoken when this timer expires.
      <li> VOS_TIMER_TYPE_WAKE_APPS - The Apps processor will be awoken
           from power collapse when this type of timer expires.
     </ol>                      
  
  \param callback - the callback function to be called when the timer
         expires.
         
  \param userData - a user data (or context) that is returned to the 
         callback function as a parameter when the timer expires.         
  
  \return VOS_STATUS_SUCCESS - timer was successfully initialized and 
          is ready to be used.
  
          VOS_STATUS_E_RESOURCES - System resources (other than memory) 
          are unavailable to initialize the timer

          VOS_STATUS_E_NOMEM - insufficient memory exists to initialize 
          the timer

  The \a vos_timer_start() function starts a timer to expire after the

  or has been cancelled.

          be stopped or expire before it can be started again.
