OK, but the context of this bug report is a generic cma pool and generic 
dma alloc, which tries cma first and then fallback to 
alloc_pages_node(). If a device really requires specific placing as you 
suggest, then it probably uses a different allocation interface, 
otherwise there would be some flag to disallow the alloc_pages_node() 
fallback?
