Subject: staging: ion: Fix ion_cma_heap allocations
From: John Stultz <john.stultz@xxxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit f292b9b28097d8fe870336108e91bd95a14294bf ]
In trying to add support for drm_hwcomposer to HiKey,
I've needed to utilize the ION CMA heap, and I've noticed
problems with allocations on newer kernels failing.
It seems back with 204f672255c2 ("ion: Use CMA APIs directly"),
the ion_cma_heap code was modified to use the CMA API, but
kept the arguments as buffer lengths rather then number of pages.
This results in errors as we don't have enough pages in CMA to
satisfy the exaggerated requests.
This patch converts the ion_cma_heap CMA API usage to properly
request pages.
It also fixes a minor issue in the allocation where in the error
path, the cma_release is called with the buffer->size value which
hasn't yet been set.
