There is no such convention except that *_config targets are expected
to use lower case characters only. We try to match the  real  product
names  as  close  as possible so everybody is able to recognize "his"
board. The only grouping done in Makefilke  and  Makeall  is  by  CPU
architecture  (i.  e. ARM9, ARM11, ARM_CORTEX_A8, ... 4xx, 83xx, ...)
etc. Within each group, lists  are  sorted  alphabetically  (ignoring
case).

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
