[PATCH 4/5] mm: do not reset cached_hole_size when vma is unmapped

[Xiao Guangrong]

In current code, cached_hole_size is set to the maximal value if the unmapped
vma is under free_area_cache, next search will search from the base addr

Actually, we can keep cached_hole_size so that if next required size is more
that cached_hole_size, it can search from free_area_cache
