At a first glance, I thought it would be better to handle such error
before activating.
So when I see the registration code(ie, dma_contiguous_revere_area),
I realized it is impossible because we didn't set up zone yet. :(
If so, when we detect to fail here, it would be better to report more
meaningful error message like what was successful zone and what is
new zone and failed pfn number?
