I've often been instructed to try to respect the inverse-xmas-tree
order when declaring variables, if possible. I now realize it's a sort
of cargo cult, as the rule is not written anywhere, so I can't ask
you to comply with what seems to be a personal preference :)

And anyway this breaks the rule already, so up to you, really

Sorry, not your fault but since you're here... You can either make a
patch that fixes the existing number of controls first then apply
this one on top, or address the issue here, maybe with a small mention in
the commit message along the lines of:

While at it, reserve space for 3 additional controls even if
v4l2_ctrl_new_fwnode_properties() can only register 2 of
them, to fix the existing implementation which reserve space for 8
controls but actually registers 9.
