[PATCH 1/2] mm: cma: adjust address limit to avoid hitting low/high memory boundary

Automatically allocated regions should not cross low/high memory boundary,
because such regions cannot be later correctly initialized due to spanning
across two memory zones. This patch adds a check for this case and a simple
code for moving region to low memory if automatically selected address might
not fit completely into high memory.
