This line should be moved after the ‘if (ret != 0)’ block, i.e. just
before return.

Perhaps:
pr_cont("=> %u free of %lu total pages\n", nr_total, cma->count);
or shorter (but more cryptic):
pr_cont("=> %u/%lu pages\n", nr_total, cma->count);

Actually, Linux style is more like:

#ifdef CONFIG_CMA_DEBUG
static void cma_debug_show_areas()
{

}
#else
static inline void cma_debug_show_areas() { }
#endif
