Commit e13ac47bec20 (spi: Use stable dev_name for ACPI enumerated SPI
slaves) changed the SPI device naming to be based on ACPI device name
instead of carrying bus number and chip select for devices enumerated
from ACPI namespace.
In case of a buggy BIOS that lists multiple SPI devices sharing the same
chip select (even though they should use different) the current code fails
to detect that and allows the devices to be added to the bus.
Fix this by walking through the bus and comparing spi->chip_select instead
of device name. This should work regardless what the device name will be in
future.

I guess this is a valid fix in that sense that before my patch those
ill-defined SPI devices were not added. Is this something which should
go to 3.13?
