Good point. I've thought about keeping dev to be back compatible
with current code, and only use default_dma_dev when no "dev" is
passed in platform data. But from your other comments, it may
be not necessary to keep the "dev"

As we are going to use per cma-heap's own "default_dma_dev",
the "data->priv" should be a pointer to "struct cma*", which
makes more sense, as when a cma heap is created, we'd better
provide a "struct cma *" to tell it where to request cma buffer.

Thanks! Will try to clean the code and add more comments, then
send it out for review.
