If all pages in the VMA got unmapped there's no reason to link it into original anon VMA hierarchy: it cannot possibly share any pages with other VMA. Set vma->anon_vma to NULL on unlink_anon_vmas(). With the change VMA can be reused. The new anon VMA will be allocated on the first fault. Signed-off-by: Kirill A.
