I am totally against this. We should not hack ACPI tables to make
the kernel work (on top of that with unwritten ordering rules that may
well require changes as kernel evolves), we should have a standard set
of bindings that people use to describe HW in the DSDT and the kernel(s)
has to cope with that. If there is a dependency problem in the description
we may solve it at bindings level, but I absolutely do not want to rely
on DSDT nodes ordering for things to work, that's fragile, no shortcuts
please.
