Hmm, looks like I missed commit ffee0de411, thanks for pointing that out. Before ffee0de411 "make defconfig ARCH=x86" produced a 32bit defconfig. Now it produces a x86_64 defconfig. As UML is a variant of x86 it makes not much sense to do things the other way around even if we break assumptions. And, of course, this makes your patch valid. Can you also please ensure that your new defconfigs are minimal? See make savedefconfig.
