Description:
Check the code sample

Code Sample demonstrating the issue:

Lock lock;
synchronized (locks) {
  lock = locks.get(0);
}
try (lock) {
  ...
}

For some type Lock that is AutoCloseable.

Expected outcome:
PMD reports a violation at line lock = locks.get(0);, but that's wrong. That's a false positive.
