[PATCH v2 4/4] arm64: kaslr: support randomized module area with KASAN_VMALLOC

After KASAN_VMALLOC works in arm64, we can randomize module region
into vmalloc area now.

Test:
	VMALLOC area ffffffc010000000 fffffffdf0000000

	before the patch:
		module_alloc_base/end ffffffc008b80000 ffffffc010000000
	after the patch:
		module_alloc_base/end ffffffdcf4bed000 ffffffc010000000

	And the function that insmod some modules is fine.
