Sounds like you clobbered vmalloc space.  Did you use io_block_map()
calls and limit the amount of vmalloc space available?  How much
address space have you ioremapped before loading the module?

Assuming you aren't using any advanced options to change PAGE_OFFSET
and friends, your vmalloc space starts at 0xe1000000.  I sure hope
you haven't 1:1 mapped that PCI mem space into kernel virtual space.
