3.13.11.5 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Joonsoo Kim <iamjoonsoo.kim at lge.com>

commit fe8eea4f4a3f299ef83ed090d5354698ebe4fda8 upstream.

We should free memory for bitmap when we find zone mismatch, otherwise
this memory will leak.

Additionally, I copy code comment from PPC KVM's CMA code to inform why
we need to check zone mis-match.
