This doesn't work when copying CMA allocated memory since CMA purposely

Given CMA may be used with drivers doing zero copy buffers, I think it

Something like the following lets it pass (I can clean up and submit
the is_migrate_cma_page APIs as a separate patch for review)
Yeah, this would be great. I'd rather use an accessor to check this
than a direct check for MIGRATE_CMA.

for (; ptr <= end ; ptr += PAGE_SIZE, page = virt_to_head_page(ptr))

- if (!PageReserved(page))
+ if (!PageReserved(page) && !is_migrate_cma_page(page))
return "<spans multiple pages>";

Yeah, I'll modify this a bit so that which type it starts as is
maintained for all pages (rather than allowing to flip back and forth
-- even though that is likely impossible).
Sorry, I completely missed the MIGRATE_CMA bits. Could you clarify if you
caught this in testing/review?
Balbir Singh.
I caught it while looking at the code and then wrote a test case to confirm
I was correct because I wasn't sure how to easily find an in tree user.
Thanks,
Laura
