Ah, then that's fine I guess. Given he is also the subsystem
maintainer I was confused.

That's good, then the OS doesn't care if you change it. Of course, I
didn't have to look to tell that. If the order varied, the OS would
have to use the names.

It's not *all*. At least half are correct. Pick the order that's the majority.

Because that's the DT convention. Why is random order important?

I don't really care so much on an individual binding, but overall if
defining the order doesn't cost anything then we should. The more
order is not defined, the more people are going to copy those
examples. Yes, there's a cost on fixing dts files, but if we're
writing schema to pass on existing dts files, what's the point of
schema?
