I currently work on paravirtual extensions for powerpc and found that the
current header dependencies create a classic "chicken or egg problem" leading
to the point that you can't use definitions out of kvm_host.h in kvm_para.h
I found it because I wanted to use kvm_vcpu, after looking around I found
that neither kvm_host.h nor any file including it today needs anything from
kvm_para.h.
C Files needing definitions of kvm_para.h should include it diretly anyway
instead of kvm_host.h and hoping for nice follow up includes in the header.

Compilation of the patch tested for x86, powerpc and s390 (thanks to Christian
Borntraeger).

Easy solution to allow e.g. kvm_vcpu in kvm_para.h, but I might overlook
something, comments welcome.
