Well that description is a bit confusing and doesn't make to much sense 
to me.

When you have two adjacent free order 0 blocks then those should be 
automatically combined into an order 1. This is a fundamental property 
of the buddy allocator, otherwise the whole algorithm won't work.

When you have the case of a free order 1 block with two adjacent free 
order 0 blocks then we a fragmented address space. In this case the best 
approach is to fail the allocation and start to swap things out.

So what exactly is the goal here?

Christian.
