If I remember correctly, newbus will throw an error if you try to create
two devices with the same number. Applying the logic of using the
cell-index property for all device nodes, if two sub buses from simplebus
have the same set of child nodes, with the same cell-index property values,
one set of
Eh, I don't care much, especially if it's for cosmetic reasons only. I'm
not sure I understand your suggested complication, but will leave the
choice to you in any case.

It's more cosmetic than anything else. I did realize a potential
complication with it tonight, too, if newbus devices are created as
children (like DMA channels in this case), and have the cell-index
property. If you object it's an easy revert.

I'm a little dubious about this change. It's not really safe to rely on
newbus unit numbers anywhere, so making them meaningful in this context
seems like a bad idea.
