Yes if you get the ordering right, it can certainly be done. You might have to introduce
a state-based CAS or secondary lock though for some scenarios (I haven't thought
through them all) I think Manik's point though was just that getting it right is
harder than just making the whole thing atomic.
Although there is no way out of the remove, you still have to recheck the lock is valid
after every successful aquire, and then try to lock the new lock
