Subject: [PATCH] mm: cma: improve utilization of cma pages

Currently, cma pages can only be use by fallback of movable.
When there is no movable pages, the pcp pages will also be refilled.

So use the cma type before movable pages, and let cma-type fallback to
movable type.

I also have seen Joonsoo Kim on cma-zone. Makes cma pages a zone. It's
a good idea. But while testing it, the cma zone can be exhausted soon.
Then the cma zone will always doing balance. The slab_scans and swap
ion/out will be too high.

Sorry for this. Only test on arm64.

Should be this:
+#if IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_CMA)
+ if (gfp_flags & __GFP_MOVABLE)
+ return MIGRATE_CMA;
+#endif
