I’m unfamiliar with ION code so cannot comment in great detail, butwhy
do you need dev and default_dma_dev fields?  Just make dev a non-pointer
and use that.

In the previous code, data->priv seemed to be struct device*, but in
this code it is used as struct cma*.

But yeah, in general, from CMA’s point of view, this looks good.
