It is no problem if the header body is surrounded by an include guard.

With include guards, each header is
_parsed_ only once even if _included_ multiple times.

Generally, we should not rely on a specific include order.

Even if we compel drivers to include dm.h,
each of dm/{device.h, platdata.h, uclass.h} should be self-contained.


We usually sort includes alphabetically,
but technically it should work in any order.
It would be possible if each header is self-contained.
