I encountered this kernel panic when upgrading 2018.4 to 2019.4 on a 13 inch 2020 MacBook Pro.
I ended up using the -force-metal command line argument and it fixed the issue for me.
You also don't have to launch Unity from the command line if you're using Unity Hub, you can add the -force-metal command line argument under "Advanced Project Settings" for the project you're trying to launch.

I got the same issue. to macbooks starting crashing and reboot after a project.
This project was migrated from 2019.2.
I removed projectsetttings file from project and let unity recreate it.

Resolution Note (fix version 2020.2):
OpenGL is being deprecated from Apple platforms, the workaround is to switch to use Metal on Standalone target (Editor uses Standalone settings for deciding which Graphics API to use).
