[CentOS] Filesystem gets corrupted after kernel upgrade to 2.6.32-431.5.1.el6

I tested one KVM machine - but this problem occured on several different
hardwares, most of them are running other virtual machines without
problems...

I'm going to test, if it's related to the mirror I'm using.
All machines were this is happening are using the same mirror server.
I't very unlikely because the signature would also be broken with a
broken package - but it's the only thing that seems to be explaining
what's going on here :-(
