I can only second the warning about 5.8.

Apart from running kvm and virtio drivers in guest ceasing disk io:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/rhelv5-list/2012-March/msg00017.html

we are seeing problems with NFS server crashing on 5.8.

Redhat has released a new kernel 2.6.18-308.1.1 yesterday, but I have 
not had the time to test this yet.
