The recent introduction of heaps in the optee driver [1] made possible the creation of heaps as modules.
It's generally a good idea if possible, including for the already existing system and CMA heaps.
The system one is pretty trivial, the CMA one is a bit more involved, especially since we have a call from kernel/dma/contiguous.c to the CMA heap code. This was solved by turning the logic around and making the CMA heap call into the contiguous DMA code.
Let me know what you think, Maxime

Thank you for this patch series; now that it is needed by more folks, I think we can merge this.
Marek, I'll coordinate with you on this - thank you!
If Marek plans on sending it during the next merge window, maybe the best thing to do for us is just to wait for -rc1 and apply the rest of the patches. Otherwise, we can merge the branch in drm-misc.
We could do that. Are we ok to wait till -rc1?
Maxime
Best, Sumit
