Oh no!

Joe is right. That isn't a checkpatch warning, but checkpatch just printing the line
in my commit message that goes over 75 characters. Which I kept that big to keep the
format from make htmldocs.

I still think the order of the documentation should match the enum regardless, it is
nicer for developers reading the code.

Sorry :( my bad for misinterpreting checkpatch's output.

Thanks you Joe for correcting me,
Luis
