Generate device.map in something closer to the old ordering.
* util/deviceiter.c (struct device): New declaration.
(compare_file_names): Rename to ...
(compare_devices): ... this. Sort by kernel name in preference to
the stable by-id name, but keep the latter as a fallback comparison.
Update header comment.
(grub_util_iterate_devices) [__linux__]: Construct and sort an array
of `struct device' rather than of plain file names.

This is GRUB 2, the second version of the GRand Unified Bootloader.
GRUB 2 is rewritten from scratch to make GNU GRUB cleaner, safer, more
robust, more powerful, and more portable.
See the file NEWS for a description of recent changes to GRUB 2.
See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install the
GRUB 2 data and program files.
Please visit the official web page of GRUB 2, for more information.

More extensive documentation is available in the Info manual,
accessible using 'info grub' after building and installing GRUB 2.
Please look at the GRUB Wiki <http://grub.enbug.org> for testing
