Considering one should be always able to do apt-get dist-upgrade from
wheezy to jessie (and that means using wheezy's kernel with jessie's
userland, at least temporary), it should be safe to assume that minimum
kernel requirement for jessie's userland is 2.6.32.
Since wheezy's kernel version is fixed for its lifetime, it's highly
unlikely that such requirement will change in the future.
Of course, wheezy's 2.6.32 and, say, CentOS's 2.6.32 are different
kernels, and in the second case you can expect all kinds of strange
behaviour.
