This fixed the below checkpatch issue:
Use imperative; you can drop "below" here.

WARNING: Symbolic permissions 'S_IRUGO | S_IWUSR' are not preferred.
Consider using octal permissions '0644'.

Usually it is Suggested-by first, then Signed-off-by at the end.

Do you find a pointer for this order of tags on the commit message in
the documentation, e.g., in
Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst?
No, I didn't found any such rule in the Documentation files.
I think you could try to create a patch to add that information on the
ordering of these tags here:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/process/submitting-patches.html#the-canonical-patch-format

You will find the source of that documentation at
Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst.

Do you want to give that a quick try?

Lukas
