This indeed was the case from the very beginning of the HVMOP
series, and I've never done the re-order because I had never
expected it to take so long for the earlier patches to go in. And
admittedly I was also too lazy (or should I say too busy, to make
it sound better) to do that re-ordering, as the fix didn't seem
important enough to bother (I'm not sure why you think this
would be a backporting candidate, as I don't think this hypercall
is used by anything that's in fully supported state).
