    bus: Allow subclass to have the same name as the parent class.
    
    Obtained-from: FreeBSD (Revision 154598 by jhb@freebsd.org)
    
      When loading a driver that is a subclass of another driver don't set the
      devclass's parent pointer if the two drivers share the same devclass.  This
      can happen if the drivers use the same new-bus name.  For example, we
      currently have 3 drivers that use the name "pci": the generic PCI bus
      driver, the ACPI PCI bus driver, and the OpenFirmware PCI bus driver.  If
      the ACPI PCI bus driver was defined as a subclass of the generic PCI bus
      driver, then without this check the "pci" devclass would point to itself
      as its parent and device_probe_child() would spin forever when it
      encountered the first PCI device that did have a matching driver.
