(Same goes for the watchdog, pinctrl and cluster-cpufreq bindings)
I am not actually sure what is the right thing to do here. It seems that
these bindings are
originally sorted using SoC types (desktop or mobile) and generations.
But then again I have
looked at some other in-tree bindings from asahi, and it seems to be a
mix of alphabetical
and logical sorting in the way mentioned above.

Maybe we can get some clarification from an Asahi Maintainer?

For the soc-level machine compatibles though, I believe that should be
retaining the logical
order instead of trying to use alphabetical order.
