[PATCH 1/2] of: skip machine device creation on subsequent of_probe

of_probe may be called more than once, e.g. after oftree -p or by board
code after fixing up device tree. This currently leads to a harmless,
but annoying error message about machine already being registered.

Avoid this by creating the device only once.
