Hmm, it seems __cm_alloc() and __cm_migrate() has no special codes for CMA.
I'd like reuse this for my own contig page allocator.
So, could you make these function be more generic (name) ?
as
	__alloc_range(start, size, mirate_type);

Then, what I have to do is only to add "search range" functions.

Thanks,
-Kame
