This is one of those rare situations where there are enough serious bugs
against the kernel that we may have to rapid stabilize
hardened-sources-3.2.59-r5 and 3.14.5-r2. These are currently marked ~
because I need feedback from users. So please try to upgrade to either
one (3.2 is preferred for mission critical) and give me feedback. The
only caution is do not enable KSTACKOVERFLOW, a new option which is know
to cause panics, eg virtio iface.
I'm running hardened-sources-3.14.5 since Tuesday, and rebooted into
hardened-sources-3.14.5-r2 on Saturday. I kept KSTACKOVERFLOW enabled for
both kernels and experienced no crashes so far on two systems.

You can try KSTACKOVERFLOW. When I hit the issue with virtio iface, it
panicked as soon as the init scripts brought it up. When I switched to
e1000 it worked fine.
So if it works with your devices you're probably safe. Still, if you're
running some mission critical stuff, don't use it just in case.
