That oops points to:

[    1.237515] kernel BUG at /build/linux-dqnRSc/linux-4.9.228/arch/x86/kernel/alternative.c:709!

which is:

        local_flush_tlb();
        sync_core();
        /* Could also do a CLFLUSH here to speed up CPU recovery; but
           that causes hangs on some VIA CPUs. */
        for (i = 0; i < len; i++)
                BUG_ON(((char *)addr)[i] != ((char *)opcode)[i]);	<---
        local_irq_restore(flags);
        return addr;

in text_poke() which basically says that the patching verification
fails. And you have a local_flush_tlb() before that. And with PCID maybe
it is not flushing properly or whatnot.

And deep down in the TLB flushing code, it does:

        if (kaiser_enabled)
                kaiser_flush_tlb_on_return_to_user();

and that uses PCID...

Anyway, needs more info.
