If check the browser_name in metafuc.params the browser_name can support get browser from marker.parametrize of testcase. Such as the code:

| metafunc.parametrize("browser_name", browsers, scope="session") |
And the fixture browser_name changes is not required.

I think that, in this case, it should better be:
if "browser_name" not in getattr(metafunc, "params", {}):
metafunc.parametrize("browser_name", browsers, scope="session")Because, I've seen that "params" could not be present if not parameters have been defined yet and "brower_name" parametrization is not added then.
But, apart from that, how does this fix the problem? Tests are still wrongly sorted with this change:

Do you mean using this?
@pytest.hookimpl(trylast=True)
def pytest_generate_tests(metafunc: Any) -> None:
if "browser_name" in metafunc.fixturenames:
browsers = metafunc.config.option.browser or ["chromium"]
metafunc.parametrize("browser_name", browsers, scope="session")The order is even worse:

Can you apply the changes about browser_name first? We need set browser_name list for part cases not all.
if "browser_name" not in getattr(metafunc, "params", {}):
metafunc.parametrize("browser_name", browsers, scope="session")
