I'm new to this, so I could use a bit of guidance here. Is it OK if I
send a follow-up patch to fix the ordering or should I send a patch to
fix the ordering first, before the sunchip prefix is added?

I never considered the possibility that the list wouldn't be in
alphabetical order to begin with, so the brain power went into deciding
if uppercase should be sorted separately.
