Keep it alphabetical. Also since <linux/of.h> does define kfree for
of_node_get(), may not be needed strictly. Sorry for not noticing those
details earlier. I am fine either way, it is good to keep it IMO.

Did you run checkpatch.pl on this ? It should have complained here and 3 other
places below.

Missing alignment here.
