I still fail to understand the need for this patch at all.  It doesn't

to be in one order or the other, and in fact, I like the order that the

thanks,

Most of makefiles has pattern that `obj-${}` is before `driver-y` lines.
If this is not something that was intentional, then this patch is not
adding any value indeed.

Few examples that give me that impression:

./gnss/Makefile-# SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0
./gnss/Makefile-#
./gnss/Makefile-# Makefile for the GNSS subsystem.
./gnss/Makefile-#
./gnss/Makefile-
./gnss/Makefile:obj-$(CONFIG_GNSS)          += gnss.o
./gnss/Makefile-gnss-y := core.o
./gnss/Makefile-
./gnss/Makefile:obj-$(CONFIG_GNSS_SERIAL)       += gnss-serial.o
./gnss/Makefile-gnss-serial-y := serial.o
--snip end--

./.../go7007/Makefile-# SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0
./.../go7007/Makefile:obj-$(CONFIG_VIDEO_GO7007) += go7007.o
./.../go7007/Makefile:obj-$(CONFIG_VIDEO_GO7007_USB) += go7007-usb.o
./.../go7007/Makefile:obj-$(CONFIG_VIDEO_GO7007_LOADER) += go7007-loader.o
./.../go7007/Makefile:obj-$(CONFIG_VIDEO_GO7007_USB_S2250_BOARD) += s2250.o
./.../go7007/Makefile-
./.../go7007/Makefile-go7007-y := go7007-v4l2.o go7007-driver.o go7007-i2c.
./.../go7007/Makefile-        snd-go7007.o
./.../go7007/Makefile-
./.../go7007/Makefile-s2250-y := s2250-board.o
--snip end--

Thanks,
Matej
