Subject: [PATCH] mm/cma: Don't treat bad input arguments for cma_alloc() as its failure

Invalid cma_alloc() input scenarios - including excess allocation request
should neither be counted as CMA_ALLOC_FAIL nor 'cma->nr_pages_failed' be
updated when applicable with CONFIG_CMA_SYSFS. This also drops 'out' jump
label which has become redundant.

Also inclined to fold (!count) check into the first one i.e (!cma || ..)
before the pr_debug() output. This applies on v6.8-rc2.
