Unfortunately, I didn't find any rule for the sequence of the tags.
Tried searching for discussions on the mailing lists but to no avail.
Generally, Suggested-by is first, then Signed-off-by is used, but it is
not a hard and fast rule. Many patches do not follow this order, and the
tags can be put in any sequence. For example:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/commit/?id=39652741c80bb0006214cf81ba9707d2dc372292
