This patch seems to be improving standard cma_alloc() as well as
the previously added new allocator i.e cma_alloc_range() - via a
new helper cma_alloc_pages_fastpath().
Should not any standard cma_alloc() improvement be discussed as
an independent patch separately irrespective of this series. OR
it is some how related to this series which I might be missing ?
