kib's patch causes a different problem, and this one is reproducible:

 Fatal trap 12: page fault while in kernel mode

If you're wondering, the panic happens at this point in
native_lapic_enable_cmc:

apic_id = PCPU_GET(apic_id);
KASSERT(lapics[apic_id].la_present,
   ("%s: missing APIC %u", __func__, apic_id));
lapics[apic_id].la_lvts[APIC_LVT_CMCI].lvt_masked = 0;    <- panic here
lapics[apic_id].la_lvts[APIC_LVT_CMCI].lvt_active = 1;
if (bootverbose)
printf("lapic%u: CMCI unmasked\n", apic_id);
}
