Let's disallow handing out PFN ranges with non-contiguous pages, so we can remove the nth-page usage in __cma_alloc(), and so any callers don't have to worry about that either when wanting to blindly iterate pages. This is really only a problem in configs with SPARSEMEM but without SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP, and only when we would cross memory sections in some cases. Will this cause harm? Probably not, because it's mostly 32bit that does not support SPARSEMEM_VMEMMAP. If this ever becomes a problem we could look into allocating the memmap for the memory sections spanned by a single CMA region in one go from memblock.
