Driver core: Revert "Fix Firmware class name collision"
This reverts commit 109f0e93b6b728f03c1eb4af02bc25d71b646c59. The original patch breaks BIOS updates on all Dell machines. The path to the firmware file for the dell_rbu driver changes, which breaks all of the userspace tools which rely on it. Note that this patch re-introduces a problem with i2c name collision that was previously fixed by this patch.
