Move meth.o upwards in Makefile since it's built-in and should be eth0
Since meth is the built-in Ethernet card on SGI O2 it makes sense for
it to be eth0, even if there is also another network card in PCI slot.
Therefore move the meth.o entry in the Makefile further up. This
change has no negative side-effect and is therefore useful even in
the days of udev.

NAK. Imagine if we did this for all platforms... you would never stop
churning the Makefile, because there is no perfect order. Its policy.
Its just to the distribution, not the kernel, to enforce preferences
like this. Don't depend on kernel Makefile driver ordering.
