Subject: [PATCH] mm/cma: fix NULL pointer dereference when cma could not be activated

In some case the cma area could not be activated, but the cma_alloc be
used under this case, then the kernel will crash caused by NULL pointer
dereference.

Add bitmap valid check in cma_alloc to avoid this issue.
