ieee1394: nodemgr: fix rwsem recursion

nodemgr_update_pdrv grabbed an rw semaphore (as reader) which was
already taken by its caller's caller, nodemgr_probe_ne (as reader too).
Reported by Miles Lane, call path pointed out by Arjan van de Ven.

FIXME:
Shouldn't we rather use class->sem there, not class->subsys.rwsem?
