When reviewing patches, it looks much nicer to have some changes shown before others, which allow better understanding of the patch before the the .c files reviewing.
Introduce a default git.orderFile, in order to help developers getting the best ordering easier.
Signed-off-by: Leonardo Bras <leobras@redhat.com> ---
Please provide feedback on what else to add / remove / reorder here!
Changes since RFCv1: - Added Kconfig* (thanks Randy Dunlap!) - Changed Kbuild to Kbuild* (improve matching)
