[PATCH] mm/compaction: add check mechanism to avoid cma alloc fail

[Haiqiang Gong]

cma alloc may fail when we doing cma alloc/free test on kernel 5.10/5.15.

We found that the next memory cannot be migrated because of the alloc of
fs as next backtrace:
__alloc_pages_nodemask
pagecache_get_page
grow_dev_page
__getblk_gfp
ext4_sb_breadahead_unmovable
__ext4_get_inode_loc
__ext4_iget
ext4_lookup
__lookup_slow
walk_component
path_lookupat
filename_lookup
vfs_statx
This kind of unmovable memory is not placed in the cma buffer when kernel
memory alloc but is migrated in by kcompactd when the kernel migration.
It will cause memory can't be migrate when cma alloc.

Add check mechanism in the compaction_alloc() where kcompaced alloc for
memory. Will return NULL and give up this memory migration if the
allocated memory is in the cma buffer and the memory is unmovable.
