Sorry, we never promised to list devices in any particular order,
any such dependency is a bug and must be fixed instead of papered
around by the kernel.

This same issue came up for routes too once we deleted fib_hash
and fib_trie listed them in a different order.

I'm not applying this.

I once hit this exact issue with a legacy commercial product using a
licence based on MAC address, and could fix it using a custom
"ifconfig", since last ifconfig versions sort the device list before
output.

I personally dont care, but apparently Rune spent time to bisect the
problem. I presumed it was an issue for him.

Since Rune didnt answer to my mail, I wont argue with you :)
