OK, I believe you're seeing the same bug as Uli saw here:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=121011518003727&w=2
More precise symptoms are here:

I never did figure that one out. I had the same kernel version, same
toolchain, same everything as far as I could see, and I couldn't
reproduce it, except with a binary that he gave me.
You're seeing it on i386, whereas he saw it on x86_64.
The underlying problem is that somehow the UML initcalls aren't being
run, which is why you're seeing all zeros in the register dump.
If you bisect this, I bet you end up at the no-unit-at-a-time patch
that he ended up at. And I have no idea what that has to do with
anything.
