"""
Checks the initialization priorities

This script parses a Zephyr executable file, creates a list of known devices
and their effective initialization priorities and compares that with the device
dependencies inferred from the devicetree hierarchy.

This can be used to detect devices that are initialized in the incorrect order,
but also devices that are initialized at the same priority but depends on each
other, which can potentially break if the linking order is changed.

Optionally, it can also produce a human readable list of the initialization
calls for the various init levels.
