 == Patch Testing Report ==

 I tested the proposed patch and verified the behavior before and after
 applying it.

 === Environment ===
 * WordPress: 7.0-beta3-61849-src
 * PHP: 8.2.29
 * Server: Nginx
 * Database: MySQL
 * Browser: Chrome
 * OS: Windows 10
 * Theme: Twenty Twenty-Five
 * Plugins: None

 === Steps to Reproduce ===
 1. Upload multiple images to the Media Library with identifiable
 naming/order.
 2. Visit: `/wp-admin/upload.php?mode=grid&orderby=date&order=desc`
 3. Observe the order of media items.

 === Before Patch ===
 * The `order=desc` parameter was not respected.
 * Media items were displayed in ascending order (1 → 10).
 * Changing `order` values (e.g., `DESC`, invalid values like `pizza`) had
 no effect.

 === After Applying Patch ===
 * The `order=desc` parameter is correctly applied.
 * Media items are now displayed in descending order (10 → 1).
 * Ordering behavior aligns with expected query parameter handling.

 === Expected Result ===
 * The `order` query parameter should properly control sorting direction
 (ASC/DESC).

 === Actual Result ===
 * ✅ After patch: Sorting works correctly as expected.


 === Conclusion ===
 The patch successfully fixes the issue. The `order` parameter is now
 properly respected in Media Library grid view.
