Subject: mm: cma: align to physical address, not CMA region position

From: Gregory Fong <gregory.0xf0@gmail.com>

commit b5be83e308f70e16c63c4e520ea7bb03ef57c46f upstream.

The alignment in cma_alloc() was done w.r.t. the bitmap.  This is a
problem when, for example:

- a device requires 16M (order 12) alignment
- the CMA region is not 16 M aligned

In such a case, can result with the CMA region starting at, say,
0x2f800000 but any allocation you make from there will be aligned from
there.  Requesting an allocation of 32 M with 16 M alignment will result
in an allocation from 0x2f800000 to 0x31800000, which doesn't work very
well if your strange device requires 16M alignment.

Change to use bitmap_find_next_zero_area_off() to account for the
difference in alignment at reserve-time and alloc-time.
