That last aspect looks a bit off to me - the heaps don't seem to be something that exist for the lifetime of the ION "device", given that these are specific runtime alloc and free calls, rather than the probe and remove routines. I don't know if CMA heaps are among those which ION creates and destroys frequently (enough that it apparently kicks off a whole background thread to manage the freeing), but this looks like a recipe for leaks. If the free call doesn't actually free the buffer, it's going to remain hanging around consuming precious CMA area until the ION device itself is torn down, which is likely never.
I wouldn't say it's necessarily inappropriate to use managed DMA resources here to cover unexpected failure cases for the ION device itself (I see the comment in ion_device_remove()), but that means still using dmam_free_coherent() when naturally releasing allocations for other reasons (i.e. both cases here). Think Java finalisers, rather than C++ destructors.
Robin.
