That only matters if we plan to backport them, surely? And I wasn't.

I suspect it won't be pretty, but I can have a go at moving
KVM_[GS]ET_CLOCK_GUEST to the end. I guess in a similar vein we'd want
to move KVM_VCPU_TSC_SCALE to the end too.

Some of the selftests will have to move too, as they do use those
features.
