Maybe just use hugetlb_cma_size? If hugetlb_cma_size is not 0, someone is 
trying to use
cma, then bootmem for gigantic pages will be totally ignored according to 
discussion here:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/7/8/1288

if somebody sets a wrong hugetlb_cma_size which causes that cma is not 
reserved. 
It is the fault of users? We just need to document hugetlb_cma will overwrite 
bootmem
reservations?
