This is caused by this commit from mainline:

linux-aws: 9f182bd x86/microcode/intel: Extend BDW late-loading further with 
LLC size check
mainline:  7e702d1 x86/microcode/intel: Extend BDW late-loading further with 
LLC size check

which adds a check which involves this computation:
+       do_div(llc_size, c->x86_max_cores);

But dmesg on a c3.large instance yields this interesting line:
[    0.156084] smpboot: x86_max_cores == zero !?!?

Title:
  Kernel panic with AWS 4.4.0-1053 / 4.4.0-1015 (Trusty)

Status in linux package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  This is a POTENTIAL REGRESSION.

  This issue only occurs on one of the AWS testing instance "c3.large"

  Reproduce rate: 100% (All jenkins deployment job failed with this
  instance)

  Steps:
    1. Deploy this instance with AWS kernel (4.4.0-1052)
    2. Enable -proposed, upgrade it and reboot.

  Result:
    * System can boot with 4.4.0-1052, but it won't be accessible after 
rebooting for 4.4.0-1053, from "aws ec2 get-console-output" command indicates 
it hang with kernel panic issue on boot. It looks like the intel-microcode is 
causing this issue.

  Output from the command: https://pastebin.ubuntu.com/p/3JvWNk5CTs/
  (it's a bit difficult to get full output, the instance will keep
  rebooting itself)
