I experienced similar corruptions on reiserfs over software RAID5,
amd64. It has been stable for several weeks before beginning to corrupt
data, and oopsing because of reiserfs corruptions.
(fsck.reiserfs --rebuild-tree helped to power up the box for less than a
day before next oops).
I since have buyed a controller that does hardware raid5.
