Unable to lock ./ibdata1, error: 11

I can't star mysql and all the solutions people tell me doesn't work.

InnoDB: Unable to lock ./ibdata1, error: 11
InnoDB: Check that you do not already have another mysqld process
InnoDB: using the same InnoDB data or log files.

I already tried to 

mv ibdata1 ibdata1.bak
mv ib_logfile ib_logfile.bak
cp -a ibdata1.bak ibdata1
cp -a ib_logfile.bak ib_logfile

And it didn't work. I still have the same error. I removed the install with purge and tried to install it again. Same thing.

I'm running out of options here. Can someone help me out with this?

This is actually simply just kill the mysql instances and mysql will be able to start again.

/etc/init.d/mysql stop

service mysql stop

killall -KILL mysql mysqld_safe mysqld
