A lock that works with the OS to so the OS knows what locks the process
holds can kill a 'bad' process and force the release of the lock.

The only way to handle 'bad' processes, is for there to be some
mechanism to deny that process access to the resource that it has taken
the lock on, so it can be given to someone else. That capability is
typically reserved to the OS.

Yes, if you abort a process in the middle of its operation, you may need
to do some 'cleanup' on the resource, but if the process isn't releasing
the resource in the required time, can you really trust that it is doing
its job right?
