CONFIG_ENABLE_VMALLOC_SAVING problem

Hi
I found when I enable CONFIG_ENABLE_VMALLOC_SAVING on ARM arch,
Vmalloc still only use VMALLOC_START -- VMALLOC_END virtual address,
It don't use the memory hole address,
Only function call get_vm_area_caller like ioremap can use
These memory hole address .
Why not change vmalloc also use this address?
Another problem is that when I cat /proc/meminfo ,
The VmallocTotal item show doesn't include memory hole address,
It only show VMALLOC_START -- VMALLOC_END ,
I think it is not correct here , should add memory hole as vmalloc when
CONFIG_ENABLE_VMALLOC_SAVING is enabled , isn't it ?
Thanks
