Module code itself sits in vmalloc'd areas, and the e1000 driver also
does some vmallocs of its own.  I'd venture a guess that one of those is
responsible, first, but no guarantees.  Putting some printks around the
vmallocs in those two places might be helpful.

I can also write you a debugging patch to print out what all of the
callers of each vmalloc area were.  Would take an hour or two to put
together...
