you can simply do
	if (!ret) {

		pr_info("%s: alloc failed, req-size: %zu pages, ret: %d\n",
			__func__, count, ret);
		debug_show_cma_areas();
	}

	return page;

static void debug_show_cma_areas(void)
{
#ifdef CONFIG_CMA_DEBUG
	unsigned int nr, nr_total = 0;
	unsigned long next_set_bit;

	mutex_lock(&cma->lock);
	pr_info("number of available pages: ");
	start = 0;
	for (;;) {
		bitmap_no = find_next_zero_bit(cma->bitmap, cma->count, start);
		if (bitmap_no >= cma->count)
		break;
		next_set_bit = find_next_bit(cma->bitmap, cma->count, bitmap_no);
		nr = next_set_bit - bitmap_no;
		pr_cont("%s%u@%lu", nr_total ? "+" : "", nr, bitmap_no);
		nr_total += nr;
		start = bitmap_no + nr;
	}
	pr_cont("=>%u pages, total: %lu pages\n", nr_total, cma->count);
	mutex_unlock(&cma->lock);
#endif
