I don't see any code actually implementing the default-contiguous-region binding. Currently on ARM systems we will still setup the default region based on the Kconfig. Is this intentional?

This scheme of associating devices with CMA regions by base does not work if you want to let CMA figure out where to place the region (base = 0). Can we use the name to associate the device with the region? I had been working on something similar internally and that was the only solution I had come up with to associate arbitrary CMA nodes with devices.

Thanks,
Laura
