dma-buf: heaps: Give default CMA heap a fixed name

Browse Source 
The CMA heap's name in devtmpfs can vary depending on how the heap is
defined. Its name defaults to "reserved", but if a CMA area is defined
in the devicetree, the heap takes on the devicetree node's name, such as
"default-pool" or "linux,cma". To simplify naming, unconditionally name
it "default_cma_region", but keep a legacy node in place backed by the
same underlying allocator for backwards compatibility.
