[RFC v3 -next] cma: Enforce non-zero pageblock_order during cma_init_reserved_mem()

cma_init_reserved_mem() checks base and size alignment with
CMA_MIN_ALIGNMENT_BYTES. However, some users might call this during
early boot when pageblock_order is 0. That means if base and size does
not have pageblock_order alignment, it can cause functional failures
during cma activate area.

So let's enforce pageblock_order to be non-zero during
cma_init_reserved_mem().
