User space stops at TASK_SIZE. At the moment, kernel space starts at PAGE_OFFSET.
In order to use space between TASK_SIZE and PAGE_OFFSET for modules, make TASK_SIZE the limit between user and kernel space. Note that fault.c already considers TASK_SIZE as the boundary between user and kernel space.
