Without boot mem reservation, what is the successful rate of CMA to serve requests of 1MiB, 2MiB, 4MiB and 8MiB chunks?
CMA will work as long as you manage to get some pageblocks marked as MIGRATE_CMA and move all non-movable pages away. You might try and get it done after system has booted but we have not tried nor tested it.
Better to include whatever test results in change log.
And no more questions ;)
