I can see quite a lot of differences, and some could matter here, e.g.
like these:

-# CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU is not set
+# CONFIG_TREE_RCU is not set
+CONFIG_PREEMPT_RCU=y
...
-CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY=y
-# CONFIG_PREEMPT is not set
+# CONFIG_PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY is not set
+CONFIG_PREEMPT=y

It's hard to guess, but at least this second patch mentioned by you
(ipv4: additional update of dev_net(dev) to struct *net in
ip_fragment.c) shouldn't matter here. Anyway, now 2.6.32.1 should be
preferred for testing (if possible).
