[PATCH 0/2] arm64: Cleanups if modules are disabled

	Hi Catalin, Will,

This patch series disables printing and reservation of virtual memory for
modules if module support is disabled.

The two patches are independent of each other.

Thanks for your comments!

If we're going to do this, then we should probably also update the pt
dumping code (mm/dump.c) to avoid dumping the modules area too.

There are also some weird consequences of defining MODULES_VSIZE to be 0,
since we'll end up registering a zero-length region with KASAN and
calculating a bogus module_alloc_base in the kaslr code. This might all be
harmless, but it feels like we're laying down some tripwires for ourselves
that I'd rather avoid doing.
