It’s not. The file documents:

# To disable CMA allocation entirely, f.e. for a headless setup, set
# CMA=0

But CMA=0 in the file leads to no cma=0 on the kernel command line,
which makes the kernel use the default CMA allocation of 64 MiB.

>Sounds like you want CMA=0M then?

Perhaps, I just threw it here for now:

$ cat /etc/default/raspi-extra-cmdline
TZ=:Europe/Berlin nofb nomodeset cma=0
