That doesn't build on top of the bad commit. Or is it supposed to go on
top of next-20120926?

Note that I've also been doing some more testing on next-20121002 and
things seem to be better. The cmatest module runs successfully. That
seems to be due to commit 061d7cd, which, IIRC, is the correct patch to
fix the build breakage that I tried to fix with #ifdef'ery. For CMA this
allows the allocations to succeed, but with COMPACTION enabled this
should still fail. My test case was always !COMPACTION, though.

However, when I run the original test case, which is allocation of a
framebuffer for HDMI it still fails. The allocation size is 8294400
bytes. Exactly 8 MiB (== 8388608 bytes) and 16 MiB (== 16777216 bytes)
do work properly. 8 MiB + 4 KiB for instance fails as well, while
exactly 10 MiB works again.
