Since the buddy allocator is used for resources which are independent of 
the CPU PAGE size the later check is actually the broken one.

E.g. neither in the buddy allocator nor in it's test cases we should 
have any of PAGE_SHIFT or PAGE_SIZE.

Otherwise the allocator wouldn't work correctly on systems with a 
PAGE_SIZE different than 4k.

Christian.
