Thanks for the crash dump.
(I'm not any good at this, but here goes) my observations so far:

 1) Your kernel stack seems totally trashed. The panic thread's stack
    looks like this:
ffffff0008b7ec40 fffffffffbc2eb40                0   0  60                0
  PC: panicsys+0x109    THREAD: 0xfffffffff8508958()
  stack pointer for thread ffffff0008b7ec40: ffffff0008b7e8d0
    cpus()

    I'm still looking for the relevant portions of the kernel code, but
    this seems quite deep.

 2) I've got an OmniOS r151004 machine running on ESXi 5.1 with VMware
    tools installed and I can't see this problem (I can reboot without
    trouble). Are you sure this occurs because of VMware tools? Can you
    install a clean copy of OmniOS and verify?

Cheers,
