Hmm, not sure about this.  If cma is only printed for CONFIG_CMA, we can't 
distinguish between (1) a kernel without your patch without including some 
version checking and (2) a kernel without CONFIG_CMA enabled.  IOW, 
"cma 0" carries value: we know immediately that we do not have any CMA 
pages on this zone, period.

/proc/zoneinfo is also not known for its conciseness so I think printing 
"cma 0" even for !CONFIG_CMA is helpful :)

I think this #ifdef should be removed and it should call into a 
zone_cma_pages(struct zone *zone) which returns 0UL if disabled.
