Instead of having a separate code path for the non-blocking alloc_pages and CMA allocations paths merge them into one. There is a slight behavior change here in that we try the page allocator if CMA fails. This matches what dma-direct and other iommu drivers do and will be needed to use the dma-iommu code on architectures without DMA remapping later on.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
