Both the encryption and hash algorithms work fine for file sizes up to 1920 bytes, while anything greater than that gets broken (comparing AES with openssl and SHA1 output with sha1sum command).

This should read "cryptodev-linux", I guess?

This should not happen unless there were some crucial changes to the
infrastructure in between 2.6.33.2 and 2.6.39.2 (which we're using
here).
You're using the hmac_comp tool, right? Did you hexdump and compare the
results already? Does encryption/hashing of blocks > 1920bytes fail
every time, also on first try (call 'hmac_comp 1920')?
