Obviously we cannot even keep order of nodes when creating a new DTSI
file from scratch.

But adding @f00000 after @1c10000 makes even less sense, regardless how
bad existing code is. Don't make it worse!

This goes before phy@fa0000

No, but don't add nodes randomly or following the previous broken order.
