For the whole series:

Tested-by: Barry Song <Baohua.Song@....com>

and i also write a simple kernel helper to test the CMA:

While fulfilling "dd if=/dev/mmcblk0 of=/dev/null bs=4096
count=1024000000 &" and "dd if=/dev/zero of=/data/1 bs=4096
count=1024000000 &" to exhaust memory at background,
i alloc the contiguous memories using the cma_test driver:
$echo 0 > /dev/cma_test
[   16.582216] misc cma_test: alloc virt: ceb00000 phys: 0eb00000
$echo 0 > /dev/cma_test
[   20.843395] misc cma_test: alloc virt: cec00000 phys: 0ec00000
$echo 0 > /dev/cma_test
[   21.774601] misc cma_test: alloc virt: cee00000 phys: 0ee00000
$echo 0 > /dev/cma_test
[   22.925633] misc cma_test: alloc virt: cf100000 phys: 0f100000

i did see the page write back is executed and contiguous memories are
always available.

P.S. the whole series was also back ported to 2.6.38.8 which our
release is based on.
