> While fixing a asynchronicity issue in the AbstractComponentManager class, I introduced a locking mechanism for the service registration field. This implementation has two issues:
> (1) The unlockServiceRegistration lock simply releases the lock regardless of who is calling the method. This causes wrong threads to be able to release the lock of other threads. A secondary to this issue is, that the unlockServiceRegistration method is called by the getServiceReference() and unregisterComponentService methods, regardless of whether the lock could be acquired or not.
> (2) When trying to acquire the lock, the lockServiceRegistration method tries to acquire the lock and if not possible waits for 10 * 10 seconds (at most) until giving up. This is probably too much. If the lock cannot be acquired within a short time frame, chances are, the lock will never be acquirable. Therefore, this time frame is cut down to 10 * 1 second before failing.
