Description
We were initially planning to write a different allocator with compaction, but now we are stuck with buddyallocator.
There are two approaches - compaction on top of buddy allocator (should be fairly simple actually, aside from indirection... luckily for the latter, we can take the buffer out in most places and we can reuse the existing locking-to-prevent-eviction mechanism to also prevent reallocation); or writing a better allocator. Probably the former is preferred, need to think about the latter.
