[v3] of: Make of framebuffer devices unique
Commit Message
Since Linux 5.19 this error is observed:
sysfs: cannot create duplicate filename '/devices/platform/of-display'
This is because multiple devices with the same name 'of-display' are
created on the same bus.
Update the code to create numbered device names for the non-boot
disaplay.

v3:
- merge fix into original patch
- Update the device name format
- add missing const
- do not continue with iterating display devices when formatting device
name fails
