Comment (by adamsilverstein):

 @trivedikavit Thanks for the detailed bug report! I was able to reproduce
 this in trunk following the common path you described:

 > Visit List mode with sorting: /wp-
 admin/upload.php?mode=list&orderby=date&order=desc
 > Click the Grid view toggle (the generated link preserves orderby/order).
 > Grid view renders the first batch of attachments in the wrong order.

 Since is the primary or maybe only way users can reach this mis-sorted
 state (there is no sort option on the grid view itself). I wonder if a
 simpler fix might be to just change the sort parameter used on the list
 view from 'desc' to 'DESC'. This seems like the fundamental issue - the
 sort variable doesn't match what the code is expecting.
