There is no accepted single kernel style for #include
file ordering.

drivers/leds does not use a single style nor is this
particular variant documented anywhere to my knowledge.

Until such a time when either a local preferred style
document or a treewide preferred style exists, please
stop asking people to modify #include ordering for
various styles like reverse christmas tree by length,
alphabetic ordering, or other individual styles.

My preferred style would always have kernel.h first
as that may help with precompiled headers and overall
kernel compilation time one day.
