mm/cma: fix potential memory loss on cma_declare_contiguous_nid
Suppose memblock_alloc_range_nid() with highmem_start succeeds when cma_declare_contiguous_nid is called with !fixed on a 32-bit system with PHYS_ADDR_T_64BIT enabled with memblock.bottom_up == false. But the next trial to memblock_alloc_range_nid() to allocate in [SIZE_4G, limits) nullifies former successfully allocated addr and it retries memblock_alloc_ragne_nid(). In this situation, the first successfully allocated address area is lost. Change the order of allocation (SIZE_4G, high_memory and base) and check whether the allocated succeeded to prevent potential memory loss.
