mm: cma: fix the name of CMA areas
Patch series "mm: fix the names of general cma and hugetlb cma", v2. The current code of CMA can only work when users pass a const string as name parameter. we need to fix the way to handle names in CMA. On the other hand, to avoid name conflicts after enabling CMA_DEBUGFS, each hugetlb should get a different CMA name. This patch (of 2): If users give a name saved in stack, the current code will generate magic pointer. if users don't give a name(NULL), kasprintf() will always return NULL as we are at the early stage. that means cma_init_reserved_mem() will return -ENOMEM if users set name parameter as NULL.
