[PATCH RFC v3 10/35] mm: cma: Fast track allocating memory when the pages are free

[Alexandru Elisei <alexandru.elisei@arm.com>]

If the pages to be allocated are free, take them directly off the buddy
allocator, instead of going through alloc_contig_range() and avoiding
costly calls to lru_cache_disable().

Only allocations of the same size as the CMA region order are considered,
to avoid taking the zone spinlock for too long.

Changes since rfc v2:

* New patch. Reworked from the rfc v2 patch #26 ("arm64: mte: Fast track
reserving tag storage when the block is free") (David Hildenbrand).
