kernel/dma: remove unsupported gfp_mask parameter from dma_alloc_from_contiguous()
The CMA memory allocator doesn't support standard gfp flags for memory allocation, so there is no point having it as a parameter for dma_alloc_from_contiguous() function. Replace it by a boolean no_warn argument, which covers all the underlaying cma_alloc() function supports. This will help to avoid giving false feeling that this function supports standard gfp flags and callers can pass __GFP_ZERO to get zeroed buffer, what has already been an issue: see commit dd65a941 ("arm64: dma-mapping: clear buffers allocated with FORCE_CONTIGUOUS flag").
