cma: redirect page allocation to CMA
CMA pages are designed to be used as fallback for movable allocations
and cannot be used for non-movable allocations. If CMA pages are
utilized poorly, non-movable allocations may end up getting starved if
all regular movable pages are allocated and the only pages left are
CMA. Always using CMA pages first creates unacceptable performance
problems. As a midway alternative, use CMA pages for certain
userspace allocations. The userspace pages can be migrated or dropped
quickly which giving decent utilization.
