Subject: [PATCH] mm: cma: allocate cma areas bottom-up

Currently cma areas without a fixed base address are allocated
close to the end of the node. This placement is sub-optimal because
of how the compaction works: it effectively moves pages into
the cma area. In particular, it often brings in hot executable pages,
even if there is a plenty of free memory on the machine.
This results in more cma allocation failures.

Instead let's place cma areas close to the beginning of a node.
Cma first tries to start with highmem_start, so we shouldn't mess
up with DMA32. In this case the compaction will help to free cma
areas, resulting in better cma allocation success rates.
