    mm/cma: drop incorrect alignment check in cma_init_reserved_mem
    
    [ Upstream commit b174f139bdc8aaaf72f5b67ad1bd512c4868a87e ]
    
    cma_init_reserved_mem uses IS_ALIGNED to check if the size represented by
    one bit in the cma allocation bitmask is aligned with
    CMA_MIN_ALIGNMENT_BYTES (pageblock size).
    
    However, this is too strict, as this will fail if order_per_bit >
    pageblock_order, which is a valid configuration.
    
    We could check IS_ALIGNED both ways, but since both numbers are powers of
    two, no check is needed at all.
