From what I read in the lwn article, I'm not sure BPF programs can call
module functions, can someone tell us if it is possible? Or planned?

In case it is possible, I would let the vmalloc allocator handle the
case where modules steal room from BPF: I would then not implement the
above but rather your first patch.

And do not forget to modify Documentation/riscv/vm-layout.rst
accordingly and remove the comment "/* KASLR should leave at least 128MB
for BPF after the kernel */"
