Oops, my bad. Will add it back.

Well, it will be as random as KASLR. Won't that be enough?

It was there on arm64 before commit 8339f7d8e178 ("arm64: module: remove
old !KASAN_VMALLOC logic").
There's no need to pass VM_DEFER_KMEMLEAK when KASAN_VMALLOC is enabled and
arm64 always selects KASAN_VMALLOC with KASAN.
And for the generic case, I should have made the condition to check for
KASAN_VMALLOC as well.
