if it's not too much for ask (and you have not done that already...) 
please file a bug on RH's bugzilla (against the kernel component) and 
one in our bugzilla. Link the two bugs together via the tracking fields 
which each bugzilla provides (on RH's it is listed under External Bugs 
-> Location "Centos", on ours I think that the info can be provided only 
in the "Additional information" field).
thank you

I have not been able to quickly locate this beast. No idea which repo 
might provide it. It does not seem to exist in elrepo, rpmfusion or 
rpmforge (unless I have not noticed it).
