Subject: mm/cma: drop incorrect alignment check in cma_init_reserved_mem
Date: Thu, 4 Apr 2024 16:25:14 +0000

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.
