sort() in Linux is based on heapsort which is not a stable sort algorithm - equal elements are being reordered. For reserved memory in the device tree this happens mainly for dynamic allocations: They do not have an address to sort with, so they are reordered somewhat randomly when adding/removing other unrelated reserved memory nodes. Functionally this is not a big problem, but it's confusing during development when all the addresses change after adding unrelated reserved memory nodes. Make the order stable by sorting dynamic allocations according to the node order in the device tree. Static allocations are not affected by this because they are still sorted by their (fixed) address.
