Fixed order of values is important in case of properties like
compatibles etc. In case of dma-names, yes order shouldn't matter here.

This patch is more of appeasing dtbs_check warning rather than fixing
something. It's safe to go with this patch.
I am not sure if there's a provision to exclude dma-names from fix
ordering checks. Rob can help here in providing better insights.
