This is ancient, even by CentOS or RHEL standards. There are thousands of patches in more recent kernels (either at kernel.org or in the updates in CentOS repositories). Nobody on linux-kernel or the other lists you copied is going to want to investigate problems on such an old kernel - you'll need to either reproduce with something current or seek assistance from the CentOS community (who will probably tell you to update your kernel first anyway).
