Now we're trying to push the remaining conversions to request_firmware()
via the driver authors, putting it into alphabetical order should help
to avoid the conflicts.

If we could have this in before 2.6.28 (since it's purely cosmetic) or
immediately thereafter, that would be great.

Thanks, Jaswinder.
