One of the most contended locks in the jbd2 layer is j_state_lock when running dbench. This is especially true if using the real-time kernel with its "sleeping spinlocks" patch that replaces spinlocks with priority inheriting mutexes --- but it also shows up on large SMP benchmarks.
Thanks to John Stultz for pointing this out.
