select statement sort order in arch/arm/Kconfig -- again

[Russell King - ARM Linux]

So, we go one kernel release since I fixed the ordering in this file
after Andrew Morton's complaint about conflicts, and people manage to
mess up the ordering.  Sorting the stuff in this file is clearly a
waste of time.

Not impressed.

On the plus side, I have a script which sorts these, so it's not
difficult to put them back into the correct order - that's not the
point - I _shouldn't_ have to do this.  It's just that it's _EXTRA_
_UNNECESSARY_ _CHURN_ each time I have to clean up after the fact.

lol.  People like to put things at the end of the list, so perhaps
putting a comment there will wake them up.

There's rather a lot of them to do that with. :p

iirc, you had to update the script since you posted it the last time.
Would you mind posting it again?

damn.  This block was my fault.

So, it looks like I just volunteered myself to add a check to checkpatch
;-)

sorry,

Jason.

If you're talking about the version in message
	20121012144832.GN28061 at n2100.arm.linux.org.uk

then that's the version I re-ran.  It hasn't changed since then.
