The tags are incorrect, I haven't suggested this change.

There are no dereferences fixed by this patch.

If you'll place the kobj as the first member of the struct, then
container_of will be a no-op.

nit: #defines and inlined helpers typically are placed at the top of the
code, after includes.

nit: you can write this as:

return container_of(kobj, struct cma_kobject, kobj)->cma;

nit: Algnment isn't right, should be better to write it as single line, IMO.

nit: Previousy algnment of the code was better here.

Otherwise this is okay to me:
