This logic is wrong.  !(a && !b) <=> !a || b, not a && b

A bus that does not have a match function now never matches, whereas
previously it would always match.  This breaks aoa-soundbus.

driver core: Fix logic in driver_match_device

A bus that does not have a match function always matches.  This fixes
