i386: clean up oops/bug reports

Typically the oops first lines look like this:

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
 printing eip:
c049dfbd
*pde = 00000000
Oops: 0002 [#1]
PREEMPT SMP
...

following output looks better (and it is how it looks on x86_64):

BUG: unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 00000000
printing eip: c049dfbd *pde = 00000000
Oops: 0002 [#1] PREEMPT SMP
