The cma->stat is NULL at the time when CMA is used on ARM because
cma->stat is initialized at the subsys level. This is the problem,
apparently.

Still there should be a wrapper around the kobj with a back reference to
the cma entry. If you're suggesting that I should write a patch, then I
may take a look at it later on. Although, I assume that Minchan could
just correct this patch and re-push it to -next.
