x86/mm: Set MODULES_END to 0xffffffffff000000
Since f06bdd4001c2 ("x86/mm: Adapt MODULES_END based on fixmap section size")
kasan_mem_to_shadow(MODULES_END) could be not aligned to a page boundary.
So passing page unaligned address to kasan_populate_zero_shadow() have two
possible effects:
1) It may leave one page hole in supposed to be populated area. After commit
21506525fb8d ("x86/kasan/64: Teach KASAN about the cpu_entry_area") that
hole happens to be in the shadow covering fixmap area and leads to crash:
BUG: unable to handle kernel paging request at fffffbffffe8ee04
RIP: 0010:check_memory_region+0x5c/0x190
Call Trace:

Note, the crash likely disappeared after commit 92a0f81d8957, which
changed kasan_populate_zero_shadow() call the way it was before
commit 21506525fb8d.
2) Attempt to load module near MODULES_END will fail, because
__vmalloc_node_range() called from kasan_module_alloc() will hit the
WARN_ON(!pte_none(*pte)) in the vmap_pte_range() and bail out with error.
To fix this we need to make kasan_mem_to_shadow(MODULES_END) page aligned
which means that MODULES_END should be 8*PAGE_SIZE aligned.
The whole point of commit f06bdd4001c2 was to move MODULES_END down if
NR_CPUS is big, so the cpu_entry_area takes a lot of space.
But since 92a0f81d8957 ("x86/cpu_entry_area: Move it out of the fixmap")
the cpu_entry_area is no longer in fixmap, so we could just set
MODULES_END to a fixed 8*PAGE_SIZE aligned address.
