 This is a known problem and there is a patch for that:

 http://bugs.centos.org/view.php?id=3156

 Your kernel is so old (meaning many security holes). Please update the
 system and while doing so, grab the centosplus kernel which has the
 fix for this issue.

Hi
Thanks for you reply , currently we have the default kernel 2.6.18-128.el5
 ( centos 5.3 ) , can i install the kernel-2.6.18-8.1.8.el5.src.rpm and add
the patch to this or do i have to  download the kernel 2.6.21 then compile
it and then install it .  I had been to the kernel.org and cant find the
kernel 2.6.21 , the kernels available are 2.6.27.49 and above .

# yum update

should install the latest centos5 kernel (centosplus if you installed 
your reiser supporting kernel from there) and that should have the fixes 
installed.

How about reading  the bug you linked where it states quite explicitly
that it was fixed in the 5.3 centos plus kernel
(2.6.18-128.el5.centos.plus) and recognising the version number as
previous to the one you just installed...

And if you wish to confirm that the patch is in the current centosplus
kernel you are running, issue a command:

rpm -q --changelog kernel-`uname -r` | more

You will find this line:

- added reiserfs patch (bug3156)

somewhere near the top of the output.
