Quick device_get_children cleanup

Hans Petter Selasky submitted a bug against the rather poor error handling of device_get_children a while ago. When the usb4bsd stuff he's trying to get into the tree was posted for review, one of the issues was with device_get_children() as it related to device_delete_children().

This reminded me of original issue. I've gone through the tree and done an audit of the device_get_children calls. I think that the issues have been resolved. However, it looks like there's a lot of code in the tree looking for siblings and such. This suggests a close review of the code to pull out common routines into subr_bus might be in order. Each of these hand-rolled routines had slightly different bugs in the error handling...
