init: sort status bits

Status bit order is inconsistent: they are neither in increasing
order nor in the order they are likely to be used.

The second approach seems more useful since there aren't
that many bits, so the numerical order does not help much.

A typical order of use would be:

ACKNOWLEDGE
DRIVER
then either FAILED or FEATURES_OK
then either FAILED or DRIVER_OK
then DEVICE_NEEDS_RESET (if device detects an error)

Sort the bits accordingly.
