I was wondering about this too. I followed the signs to the GE kiosks back in November and got in line. I then realized that I was in some special line, but it was the only way to access the kiosk. I got to the CBP officer and I said, "Are the GE kiosks open?" He told me they were and I just proceeded to them without showing my passport.
I don't know if there's a way to access the kiosks at LAX without standing in the crew line. The only other place I've used GE has been at ORD, and those kiosks are in the middle section. You can simply walk into the baggage claim area after you get your receipt.
