Hmm, this panic looks very similar to one of
these bugs:
http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=12379
http://defect.opensolaris.org/bz/show_bug.cgi?id=6837
http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=6820576
Workaround for vmware, from bug 6820576 is:
For VMware (only), disable pcieb by adding
-B disable-pcieb=true to the kernel command
line (assumes you don't need any virtual devices
that are behind the virtual PCIe bridges.
