What about newer kernels .35 , .37, .38-rcX ?I've not tried to use those.
I think you should try at least .37 to see if bug is not fixed there by chance. If it is, finding fix for .33 would be easier.

(2) When multi processor mode is enabled When SMP option of the kernel is disabled (CONFIG_SMP=m), this panic doesn't occur.For CONFIG_PREEMPT=n and CONFIG_SMP=n spin locks are compiled out from kernel, they are simply not needed.The same goes on CONFIG_PREEMPT=n and CONFIG_SMP=y ?
No, spin locks are wiped out only with both disabled. Cheers Stanislaw
