[PATCH 1/4] mm: cma: Don't crash on allocation if CMA area can't be activated

If activation of the CMA area fails its mutex won't be initialized,
leading to an oops at allocation time when trying to lock the mutex. Fix
this by failing allocation if the area hasn't been successfully actived,
and detect that condition by moving the CMA bitmap allocation after page
block reservation completion.
