If it helps: the above *ti pointer is the only one that points to
an (invalid) vmalloc area address. Invalid means the page was unmapped
because it was freed because of DEBUG_PAGEALLOC.
All other addresses I followed to get to this one belong to
the 1:1 mapping of the kernel, so no vmalloc involved.
