I think that does align better with the dts-coding-style doc!

Looking at the tree though, the standard currently in the TI folder
is to put it first. In my opinion if changing the ordering is desired
it should be done in one fell swoop (outside this series). I'd do
it one big patch, but I'm curious if that's decided the way forward what
the TI maintainers would like to see. I can send that patch if desired.

For now I think sticking with the current practice in this series
makes sense until that fell swoop happens.

Please let me know if you feel strongly otherwise.

Thanks,
Andrew
