I am running about a dozen 6.2 -stable VMs on ESXi 6.5. I have exactly one VM that panics with vmxnet3_getbuf but only when it's being snapshotted. And not every time, but usually. I think once it paniced when I was snapshotting a lot of other VMs in the cluster but I don't trust that memory now. I've not seen that again. Tim.
