Public bug reported:

On some arm64 systems[*] we are seeing a spew of messages on the
console:

[   19.534097] cma: cma_alloc: alloc failed, req-size: 64 pages, ret: -12
[   19.534109] cma: cma_alloc: alloc failed, req-size: 16 pages, ret: -12
[   19.534113] cma: cma_alloc: alloc failed, req-size: 64 pages, ret: -12
[   19.534126] cma: cma_alloc: alloc failed, req-size: 16 pages, ret: -12
[   19.534130] cma: cma_alloc: alloc failed, req-size: 64 pages, ret: -12
[   19.534142] cma: cma_alloc: alloc failed, req-size: 16 pages, ret: -12
[   19.534146] cma: cma_alloc: alloc failed, req-size: 64 pages, ret: -12
[   19.534157] cma: cma_alloc: alloc failed, req-size: 16 pages, ret: -12
[   19.534161] cma: cma_alloc: alloc failed, req-size: 64 pages, ret: -12
[   19.534173] cma: cma_alloc: alloc failed, req-size: 16 pages, ret: -12
[   19.534177] cma: cma_alloc: alloc failed, req-size: 64 pages, ret: -12

This appears to be non-fatal - impacted systems all eventually boot.
But, at least in the case of the HP m400, it slows down boot enough that
MAAS' default timeout will expire before completing deployment.

[*] Observed on a HiSilicon D06 w/ SMMU disabled in the BIOS, as well as
an HP m400 (APM X-Gene) cartridge - although, not on another one that -
in theory - should be identical.

** Affects: linux (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
         Status: Incomplete
