So the way I understand it is that modules are first and foremost loaded into
the area MODULES_VADDR .. MODULES_END, and then after that is out,
they get loaded into VMALLOC. See arch/arm/kernel/module.c, module_alloc().

If you do this, how are the addresses between MODULES_VADDR..MODULES_END
shadowed when using CONFIG_KASAN_VMALLOC?

(Splitting this in two steps if probably good in any case.)

Pls keep me on CC for Kasan ARM patches, thanks! (Maybe I should add some
MAINTAINERS blurb.)

Yours,
