No, I don't have any particular improvement suggestions, I'm just want
to understand the current order for when I introduce something new here
(e.g. no_status). If I understand correctly, status_invert was moved up
to be with the other "*_invert" flags, but why was runtime_pm moved
to above not_fixed_stride rather than below it?
