The score is the "least common denominator" for functional
implementation in RTEMS. Any code that is shared by more than one API
must generally belong in the score. I can't seem to find where this is
described in our documentation. Although it's really outdated now, you
can get a sense of things from Section 2 of
https://gedare.github.io/pdf/bloom_scheduling_2014.pdf

Since you have something that needs to be accessible from POSIX with
some implementation in architecture/BSP-specific code, the only place
that could be implemented is in the score.
