kcore: register module area in generic way
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Some archs define MODULED_VADDR/MODULES_END which is not in VMALLOC area.
This is handled only in x86-64.  This patch make it more generic.  And we
can use vread/vwrite to access the area.  Fix it.
