dma-contiguous.h doesn't needed now.

How about keeping cma_mem_head on each cma area separately?

CONFIG_CMA_ALIGNMENT looks not good. It means just maximum aligment
so it is odd to use this value in testing. Is there special meaning
to use it here?

Could we also get alignment parameter from user? Something like below.

echo "4 1" > alloc
4 for number of pages
1 for alignment.

If it is impossible, just 0 looks better than CONFIG_CMA_ALIGNMENT.

Thanks.
