Subject: [PATCH 4/5] mm: do not reset cached_hole_size when vma is unmapped
Date: Fri, 13 Jan 2012 19:46:56 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4F1019B0.5080503@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <4F101904.8090405@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

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
