+ Sets the size of kernel per-numa memory area for
+ contiguous memory allocations. A value of 0 disables
+ per-numa CMA altogether. And If this option is not
+ specificed, the default value is 0.
+ With per-numa CMA enabled, DMA users on node nid will
+ first try to allocate buffer from the pernuma area
+ which is located in node nid, if the allocation fails,
+ they will fallback to the global default memory area.
