[PATCH] riscv: Correct the MODULES_VADDR

As Documentation/riscv/vm-layout.rst describes, the 2G-sized "modules, BPF"
area should lie right before the "kernel" area. But the current definition
of MODULES_VADDR isn't consistent with that, so correct it.

Before this patch, the size of "modules" from print_vm_layout() is not 2G.

[    0.000000]      modules : 0xffffffff2ff2f000 - 0xffffffffae600000 (2022 MB)
[    0.000000]       lowmem : 0xff60000000000000 - 0xff60000040000000 (1024 MB)
[    0.000000]       kernel : 0xffffffffae600000 - 0xffffffffffffffff (1305 MB)

After this patch, the size is 2G.

[    0.000000]      modules : 0xffffffff3a000000 - 0xffffffffba000000 (2048 MB)
[    0.000000]       lowmem : 0xff60000000000000 - 0xff60000040000000 (1024 MB)
[    0.000000]       kernel : 0xffffffffba000000 - 0xffffffffffffffff (1119 MB)
