On Oracle Linux 6, you would run the UEK Release 3, which is based on 3.8 mainline with upstream fixes. We also provide all security and bug fix errata for free viahttp://public-yum.oracle.com, so you don’t need to buy support to run Oracle Linux at keep up-to-date.

   I can't speak for Oracle's distribution, but in the general case,
yes, btrfs works on 32 bit systems.

   On the subject of bitness, there's a couple of rough edges with
64-bit kernels and 32-bit userspace. (I think there's still one ioctl
that fails on that configuration, but I've not hit it yet on my test
machine).
