Well, this more or less follows from original design. Page anon-vma along with page offset limits set of vmas scanned by rmap: it skips vmas where page cannot be mapped for sure. If vmas in one process shares anon-vma then they likely have non-overlapping offsets, so there is no reason to fork personal anon-vma for each of them when process forks. But it's good to fork new anon-vma for all of them together: then rmap could skip scanning parent vmas for pages allocated\cowed in child process.
