cma_init_reserved_mem() checks base and size alignment with
CMA_MIN_ALIGNMENT_BYTES.  However, some users might call this during early
boot when pageblock_order is 0.  That means if base and size does not have
pageblock_order alignment, it can cause functional failures during cma
activate area.

So let's enforce pageblock_order to be non-zero during
cma_init_reserved_mem() to catch such wrong usages.

1. This was seen with fadump on PowerPC which was calling
   cma_init_reserved_mem() before the pageblock_order was initialized.
   This is now fixed in the fadump on PowerPC itself.  The details of that
   can be found in the patch including the userspace-visible effect of the
   issue [1].

2. However it was also decided that we should add a stronger
   enforcement check within cma_init_reserved_mem() to catch such wrong
   usages [2].  Hence this patch.  This is ok to be in -next and there is
   no "Fixes" tag required for this patch.
