[patch 1/1] uml: fix handling of no fpx_regs [critical, for 2.6.12]

[blaisorblade@yahoo.it]

From: Andree Leidenfrost <aleidenf@bigpond.net.au>, Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso <blaisorblade@yahoo.it>

Fix the error path, which is triggered when the processor misses the fpx regs
(i.e. the "fxsr" cpuinfo feature). For instance by VIA C3 Samuel2. Tested and
obvious, please merge ASAP.
