Subject: mm/cma: provide option to opt out from exposing pages on activation failure
Patch series "powerpc/fadump: handle CMA activation failure appropriately", v3.
Commit 072355c1cf2d ("mm/cma: expose all pages to the buddy if activation
of an area fails") started exposing all pages to buddy allocator on CMA
activation failure. But there can be CMA users that want to handle the
reserved memory differently on CMA allocation failure. Provide an option
to opt out from exposing pages to buddy for such cases.
