Joonsoo Kim 1d91df85f3 mm/page_alloc: handle a missing case for memalloc_nocma_{save/restore} APIs 
memalloc_nocma_{save/restore} APIs can be used to skip page allocation
on CMA area, but, there is a missing case and the page on CMA area could
be allocated even if APIs are used.  This patch handles this case to fix
the potential issue.

For now, these APIs are used to prevent long-term pinning on the CMA
page.  When the long-term pinning is requested on the CMA page, it is
migrated to the non-CMA page before pinning.  This non-CMA page is
allocated by using memalloc_nocma_{save/restore} APIs.  If APIs doesn't
work as intended, the CMA page is allocated and it is pinned for a long
time.  This long-term pin for the CMA page causes cma_alloc() failure
and it could result in wrong behaviour on the device driver who uses the
cma_alloc().

Missing case is an allocation from the pcplist.  MIGRATE_MOVABLE pcplist
could have the pages on CMA area so we need to skip it if ALLOC_CMA
isn't specified.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
