Tobias, plase try this patch:

Subject: dma-direct: fix zone selection after an unaddressable CMA allocation

The new dma_alloc_contiguous hides if we allocate CMA or regular
pages, and thus fails to retry a ZONE_NORMAL allocation if the CMA
allocation succeeds but isn't addressable.  That means we either fail
outright or dip into a small zone that might not succeed either.

Thanks to Hillf Danton for debugging this issue.

Fixes: b1d2dc009dec ("dma-contiguous: add dma_{alloc,free}_contiguous() helpers")
