Currently only 12 characters of the cma name is being used as the debug
directories where as the cma name can be of length CMA_MAX_NAME(=64)
characters. One side problem with this is having 2 cma's with first
common 12 characters would end up in trying to create directories with
same name and fails with -EEXIST thus can limit cma debug functionality.
The 'cma-' prefix is used initially where cma areas don't have any names
and are represented by simple integer values. Since now each cma would be
having its own name, drop 'cma-' prefix for the cma debug directories as
they are clearly evident that they are for cma debug through creating them
in /sys/kernel/debug/cma/ path.

There are lots of documents that belong to the admin-guide but
are on random places (most under Documentation root dir).
Move them to the admin guide.
