I wanted to have KVM_ARM_xxxx IOCTLs located nearby hence
placed KVM_ARM_PREFERRED_TARGET after KVM_ARM_VCPU_INIT.

There is no point in keeping KVM_ARM_PREFERRED_TARGET
after KVM_PPC_RTAS_DEFINE_TOKEN and make
KVM_PPC_RTAS_DEFINE_TOKEN dangle in-between documentation
of various KVM_ARM_xxxx IOCTLs.
