nit: the above wording is a bit unclear. Instead of module_tags I
would call it "memory for module allocation tags". So, I would change
the above paragraph to:

The memory for module allocation tags is allocated on demand,
therefore we need to allocate shadow memory on demand as well in
MODULE_ALIGN blocks.
