Subject: [PATCH 5/5] mm: search from free_area_cache for the bigger size

If the required size is bigger than cached_hole_size, we would better search
from free_area_cache, it is more easier to get free region, specifically for
the 64 bit process whose address space is large enough

Do it just as hugetlb_get_unmapped_area_topdown() in arch/x86/mm/hugetlbpage.c
