The sort order for the various SCIF variants is still a bit odd:

        scifa0: serial at e6c40000 {
        scifa1: serial at e6c50000 {
        scifa2: serial at e6c60000 {
        scifb0: serial at e6c20000 {
        scifb1: serial at e6c30000 {
        scifb2: serial at e6ce0000 {
        scif0: serial at e6e60000 {
        scif1: serial at e6e68000 {
        scif2: serial at e6e56000 {
        hscif0: serial at e62c0000 {
        hscif1: serial at e62c8000 {

(hscif0 has the lowest address)

But hey, SCIF is special ;-)

when I'm talking to journalists I just say "programmer" or something like that.
