can 'vmstat' also cause it?

vmstat is a reporting tool, not sure about what you mean with "causing it".

I noticed that exact same time is when message was logged and vmstat used.

This information message might indeed appear when vmstat is run as it might use the devinfo driver.

 $ ldd /bin/vmstat
        libdevinfo.so.1 =>       /lib/libdevinfo.so.1
        libkstat.so.1 =>         /lib/libkstat.so.1
        libavl.so.1 =>   /lib/libavl.so.1
        libc.so.1 =>     /lib/libc.so.1
        ...
