Sometimes, more than one (generally two) device can point to the same
fwnode. However, only one device is set as the fwnode's device
(fwnode->dev) and can be looked up from the fwnode.
Typically, only one of these devices actually have a driver and actually
probe. If we create device links for all these devices, then the
suppliers' of these devices (with the same fwnode) will never get a
sync_state() call because one of their consumer devices will never probe
(because they don't have a driver).
So, create device links only for the device that is considered as the
fwnode's device.
One such example of this is the PCI bridge platform_device and the
corresponding pci_bus device. Both these devices will have the same
fwnode. It's the platform_device that is registered first and is set as
the fwnode's device. Also the platform_device is the one that actually
probes. Without this patch none of the suppliers of a PCI bridge
platform_device would get a sync_state() callback.
