No.  The original order should be good.  We should put newer/more
specific compatible first and older/more generic compatible later.  I
think the issue is that the binding document.  We don't need to list
the combinations.  Just list all the possible compatible strings
specific to layerscape.  You can add a special note about "snps,
dw-pcie" separately.
