It seems to have a potential risk here, the region of bpf is
overlapping with kernel mapping, so if kernel size is bigger than
128MB, bpf region would be occupied and run out by kernel mapping.

Although kernel_virt_addr is a fixed address now, I think it could be
changed for the purpose of relocatable or KASLR, so if
kernel_virt_addr is moved to far from VMALLOC_END than 2G, the region
of module would be too big. In addition, the region of module could be
+-2G around the kernel, so we don't be limited in one direction as
before. It seems to me that the region of the module could be decided
at runtime, for example, VMALLOC_MODULE_START is "&_end - 2G" and
VMLLOC_MODULE_END is "&_start + 2G". I'm not sure whether the size of
region of bpf has to be 128MB for some particular reason, if not,
maybe the region of bpf could be the same with module to avoid being
run out by module.
