Sorry for late reply, took a half day away from box.  Jan had already
done the full ext3 IO deadlock analysis:

Again kjournald is waiting for buffer IO on block 4367635 (sector
78364838) to finish.  Now it is dbench thread 0xffff88026f330e70 which
has submitted this buffer for IO and is still holding this buffer behind
its plug (request for sector 78364822..78364846). The dbench thread is
waiting on j_checkpoint mutex (apparently it has successfully got the
mutex in the past, checkpointed some buffers, released the mutex and
hung when trying to acquire it again in the next loop of
__log_wait_for_space()).
