In case of multiple muxes on one bus, it is impossible to determine which muxed bus comes from which mux. It could be argued that the parent device should be changed from the parent adapter to the mux device. This has pros and cons. To improve the topology, simply add a "mux_device" symlink pointing to the actual muxing device, so we can distinguish muxed busses. Doing it this way, we don't break the ABI.
