Oh, wait.. I think this kfree wrong since cma_kobj belongs to the array.
Oh, good spot. Let me use kzalloc.
Thinking a bit more about this.. it looks like actually it should be
better to get back to the older variant of cma_stat, but allocate at the
time of CMA initialization, rather than at the time of sysfs
initialization. Then the cma_stat will be decoupled from the cma struct
IIRC, the problem was slab was not initiaized at CMA init point.
That's why I liked your suggestion.
and cma_stat will be a self-contained object.
Yeah, self-contained is better but it's already weird to
have differnt lifetime for one object since CMA object
never die, technically.
