mm: do not reset cached_hole_size when vma is unmapped
In the current code, cached_hole_size is set to the maximum value if the unmapped vma is less that free_area_cache so the next search will search from the base address. Actually, we can keep cached_hole_size so that if the next required size is more than cached_hole_size, it can search from free_area_cache.
