Overall, this patch implies that CMA is always compiled in.

Not really.  But yes, it produces some bloat when neither CMA nor
compaction are compiled.  I assume that linker will be able to deal
with that (since the functions are not EXPORT_SYMBOL'ed).

The bloat exists either way. I don't believe the linker strips it out so
overall it would make more sense to depend on compaction to keep the
vmstat counters for debugging reasons if nothing else. It's not
something I feel very strongly about though.
KK, I'll do that then.
