Note also how:
    enqueue gets and releases = 23M
    db block gets = 23 M
    execute count = 23M

You can't help feeling that that's not a 
complete coincidence.  I think your trigger
theory sounds quite good at the moment,
only 
    a)    I'd like to find that 23M executions in 
            v$sql.  Why isn't it appearing in statspack ?
    b)    There's no redo generated to match the
            volume of locking.

I'd like to see the snapshot of x$ksqst
One thought - for parallel DML, maybe
there are lots of DX locks being taken
and dropped.

Eygle
Looking at the excel spreadsheet, one of the child latch has 2.4
Billion gets and other child latches have less then 76K latch gets. So,
sessions are contending to lock one table. Looking at the statspack
report, you have numerous enqueue gets and releases too. 
Is there any foreign key constraint on this table ? If yes, do
you have any index on that foreign key column ? Further, what mode locks
are being acquired ?
do you have any triggers on this table, by any chance ?
