arm64: kaslr: keep modules close to the kernel when DYNAMIC_FTRACE=y
The RANDOMIZE_MODULE_REGION_FULL Kconfig option allows KASLR to be
configured in such a way that kernel modules and the core kernel are
allocated completely independently, which implies that modules are likely
to require branches via PLT entries to reach the core kernel. The dynamic
ftrace code does not expect that, and assumes that it can patch module
code to perform a relative branch to anywhere in the core kernel. This
may result in errors such as
branch_imm_common: offset out of range

LR is at ftrace_process_locs+0x330/0x430
So make RANDOMIZE_MODULE_REGION_FULL mutually exclusive with DYNAMIC_FTRACE
at the Kconfig level.
