The panic message and the stack backtrace indicates that a process has
gone to sleep while holding a vnode interlock.  When pagedaemon tries
to obtain the vnode interlock (in vput() called from vm_pageout()) the
machine will either hang (if the vnode interlock was held by the other
CPU) or panic (if the vnode interlock was held by the same CPU).

Use
	ps axlww -N kernel.debug.76 -M vmcore.76

to list the processes on the system when it died.

Use gdb to list the kernel stack of each process.  The offending
process probably has an uncommon WCHAN string.
