When using random order, I've been told by reviewers that my ordering
is wrong [1], but I could not figure out what the "right" ordering is in order to apply.
I did not find any mention of how to sort includes in Documentation/CodingStyle,
but I've seen patches in the kernel that fix random ordering by sorting them
alphabetically [2].

However, I do not feel strongly about this so I can drop this patch.

Thanks,
Irina
