mm/cma: provide option to opt out from exposing pages on activation failure 

Patch series "powerpc/fadump: handle CMA activation failure appropriately", v3.

Commit 072355c1cf ("mm/cma: expose all pages to the buddy if
activation of an area fails") started exposing all pages to buddy
allocator on CMA activation failure.  But there can be CMA users that
want to handle the reserved memory differently on CMA allocation
failure.

Provide an option to opt out from exposing pages to buddy for such
cases.
