The addresses within a single page are always contiguous, so it's not so necessary to always allocate one single page from CMA area. Since the CMA area has a limited predefined size of space, it may run out of space in heavy use cases, where there might be quite a lot CMA pages being allocated for single pages. However, there is also a concern that a device might care where a page comes from -- it might expect the page from CMA area and act differently if the page doesn't. This patch tries to use the fallback alloc_pages path, instead of one-page size allocations from the global CMA area in case that a device does not have its own CMA area. This'd save resources from the CMA global area for more CMA allocations, and also reduce CMA fragmentations resulted from trivial allocations.
