[RFC] ion:change ion_cma_allocate return error value

From: Wang, Yalin
Date: Tue Jan 27 2015 - 01:04:34 EST


This patch change the error return value from -1 to -ENOMEM,
so that userspace can get the correct errno, otherwise,
-1 will be -EPERM, userspace will print permission deny for allocation
failure.
