Subject: [PATCH v2] mfd: do not assign already already assigned compatible of_nodes

If 2 similar cells have the same of_compatible (2 instances of the same
functionality), they both are assigned the first found of_node with this
compatible. In the below example, the pdev of both cells get the child@0
of_node.

parent@0 { /* MFD devices with 2 cells
	reg = <0>;
	child@0 {
		reg = <0>;
		compatible = "child-driver";
	};
	child@1 {
		reg = <1>;
		compatible = "child-driver";
	};
};

To avoid this, the found of_nodes are checked to see if they are already
assigned in the children of the parent dev and are only assigned if
still "available" (not assigned to a child).

This allows the 2nd cell's pdev to get the child@1 of_node.
