I used 32-bit kernel on 64-bit hardware recently without no issue. 
AFAICT, 32-bit guest as always worked on Xen. Which version on Xen are 
you running?
Also, silly question, does your hardware supports 32-bit instructions? 
I.e were you able to run Linux 32-bit on baremetal?

This looks like an issue with Xen running on your hardware. EC = 0x0 
means "Exception with an Unkwnown reasons".

schedule_tail contains the code to context switch from one domain to 
another one.
Can you run addr2line on the xen-syms with the address in PC and give 
the result?
