The entries you need to look for are those like the above where there is
a 'W' in the holder's flags field. If you do two dumps a few mins apart
and the lock state of the locks with waiters looks identical then there
is a real bug. If the lock state is different, or if different locks
have waiters, then that suggests that the issue is contention,
