The routine cma_init_reserved_areas is designed to activate all
reserved cma areas.  It quits when it first encounters an error.
This can leave some areas in a state where they are reserved but
not activated.  There is no feedback to code which performed the
reservation.  Attempting to allocate memory from areas in such a
state will result in a BUG.

Modify cma_init_reserved_areas to always attempt to activate all
areas.  The called routine, cma_activate_area is responsible for
leaving the area in a valid state.  No one is making active use
of returned error codes, so change the routine to void.

How to reproduce:  This example uses kernelcore, hugetlb and cma
as an easy way to reproduce.  However, this is a more general cma
issue.
