Or:

This patch introduces sysfs statistics for CMA, in order to provide
some basic monitoring of the CMA allocator.

Maybe:

These two values allow the user to calcuate the allocation
failure rate for each CMA area.

How about this instead:
Description:
		/sys/kernel/mm/cma/ contains a subdirectory for each CMA heap name (also
         sometimes called CMA areas).

         Each CMA heap subdirectory (that is, each
         /sys/kernel/mm/cma/<cma-heap-name> directory) contains the following
         items:

			cma_alloc_pages_attempt
			cma_alloc_pages_fail


> +
> +What:		/sys/kernel/mm/cma/<cma-heap-name>/cma_alloc_pages_attempt

Actually, shall we change that from "attempt" to "attempts"? Otherwise, the
language is a little odd there.

Remove the unnecessary tab there, none of the other nearby lines have one.

This should not be a pointer. By making it a pointer, you've added a bunch of pointless
extra code to the implementation.

Here's a diff to implement the non-pointer way, and also to fix a build error in this
patch (missing semicolon):

I don't know what that's for but it definitely is not needed if you make cma.stat
not a pointer, and not in any other case either.

This clearly is not going to compile! Don't forget to build and test the
patches.
