I think __read_mostly is not good here.
Cma areas often are rare
but we cannot expect how many cma areas exists.

I basically agree with your point.
But CMA feature is not popular yet, so memory develoers probably doesn't like
this.
I'm not sure but I think there is a debugfs file for cma.
Can you use it?
Or what do you think about making another proc file to show cma area size and
address?
For instance,
# cat /proc/cmainfo
CMATotal: 400kB
0x10000000 300kB
0x20000000 100kB
