Anshuman Khandual e35ef6397b mm/cma.c: warn if the CMA area could not be activated
While activating a CMA area we check to make sure that all the PFNs in
the range are inside the same zone.  This is a requirement for
alloc_contig_range() to work.  Any CMA area failing the check is
disabled for good.  This happens silently right now making all future
cma_alloc() allocations failure inevitable.

Here we add an error message stating that the CMA area could not be
activated which makes it easier to explain any future cma_alloc()
failures on it.  While in there, change the bail out goto label from
'err' to 'not_in_zone' which makes more sense.

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
