I just wanted to add that xfs has no special connection to the centosplus 
kernel. If you want xfs you pick up the kmod-xfs package (no need to change 
kernel).

The only way I know of is to look at your kernels .config (typicall found 
at /boot/config-$(uname -r)). grep for 4KSTACK. If it's not set it's 8K 
(afaik).
