Laura Abbott 6bc7adb0da cma: Allow option to use strict memblock_reserved memory
Despite all the performance optimizations, some clients are
still unable to use CMA because of the allocation latency.
Rather than make those clients use a separate set of APIs,
extend the CMA code to allow clients to keep the memory out of
the buddy allocator. Since the pages never actually go to the
buddy allocator, allocation and freeing is only based on the bitmap
allocator to find the appropriate region.

/*
* Contiguous Memory Allocator
*
* The Contiguous Memory Allocator (CMA) makes it possible to
* allocate big contiguous chunks of memory after the system has
* booted.
*
* Why is it needed?
*
* Various devices on embedded systems have no scatter-getter and/or
* IO map support and require contiguous blocks of memory to
* operate. They include devices such as cameras, hardware video
* coders, etc.
*
* Such devices often require big memory buffers (a full HD frame
* is, for instance, more then 2 mega pixels large, i.e. more than 6
* MB of memory), which makes mechanisms such as kmalloc() or
* alloc_page() ineffective.
*
* At the same time, a solution where a big memory region is
* reserved for a device is suboptimal since often more memory is
* reserved then strictly required and, moreover, the memory is
* inaccessible to page system even if device drivers don't use it.
*
* CMA tries to solve this issue by operating on memory regions
* where only movable pages can be allocated from. This way, kernel
* can use the memory for pagecache and when device driver requests
* it, allocated pages can be migrated.
*
* Driver usage
*
* CMA should not be used by the device drivers directly. It is
* only a helper framework for dma-mapping subsystem.
*
* For more information, see kernel-docs in drivers/base/dma-contiguous.c
