Better rio(4) diff than before.
"Stable device unique name" sounds like a violation of that rule about
the order in adjectives in English, although "device unique name"
appears elsewhere and so may be a technical term not to be rearranged.
Or perhaps I'm looking at a missing hyphen (stable device-unique name)
rather than wrong order. The order the words are already in would be
correct in this case.
inb4 device isn't an adjective
