Subject[PATCH v4] mm: cma: indefinitely retry allocations in cma_alloc
Date
V1: Introduces a retry loop that attempts a CMA allocation a finite
number of times before giving up:

V2: Introduces an indefinite retry for CMA allocations. David Hildenbrand
raised a page pinning example which precludes doing this infite-retrying
for all CMA users:

V3: Re-introduce a GFP mask argument for cma_alloc(), that can take in
__GFP_NOFAIL as an argument to indicate that a CMA allocation should be
retried indefinitely. This lets callers of cma_alloc() decide if they want
to perform indefinite retires. Also introduces a config option for
controlling the duration of the sleep between retries:

V4: In response to comments by Minchan Kim, we make the sleep interruptable
and remove a defconfig option controlling how long the sleep lasts for (it
is now a fixed 100 ms).
