 *  _Heap_Free
 *
 *  This kernel routine returns the memory designated by the
 *  given heap and given starting address to the memory pool.
 *
 *  Input parameters:
 *    the_heap         - pointer to heap header
 *    starting_address - starting address of the memory block to free.
 *
 *  Output parameters:
 *    TRUE  - if starting_address is valid heap address
 *    FALSE - if starting_address is invalid heap address
