ACPI: video: Rework checking for duplicate video bus devices
The current way of checking for duplicate video bus devices in acpi_video_bus_probe() is based on walking the ACPI namespace which is not necessary after recent driver conversions. It is also susceptible to race conditions (for example, if two video bus devices are probed at the same time) and ordering issues. Instead of doing it the old way, inspect the children of the parent of the device being probed, excluding the latter and the children that are not auxiliary devices. For each of the remaining children, check if any of the entries in the video_bus_head list is equal to its driver data which can only happen if the given child has been processed by acpi_video_bus_probe() successfully and so it is a duplicate of the one being probed. Moreover, to prevent acpi_video_bus_probe() from processing two devices concurrently, which might defeat the above check, use a new internal mutex in it. Also, print the FW_BUG message only if allow_duplicates is unset which allows the entire duplicates check to be skipped in that case (doing it just to print the message about the case that is going to be ignored anyway is kind of pointless).
