I have a memory leak in scsi_cmd_cache.

does this happen without the binary nvidia driver too? (it appears
you're using that). That's a good datapoint to have if so...
please repeat this without nvidia ever being loaded. Just having a
module loaded before can already cause corruption that ripples through
later, so just unloading is not enough to get a clean result.
I rebooted without nvidia or vmware ever being loaded and got a 
leak of 1.12KB/s. So I think we can rule that out.

A commonality I'm noticing is SATA. SATA had a big update in this 
version, so perhaps that's where to start looking.
