niu: Rename NIU parent platform device name to fix conflict.

When the OF device driver bits were converted over to the platform
device infrastructure in commit 74888760d40b3ac9054f9c5fa07b566c0676ba2d
("dt/net: Eliminate users of of_platform_{,un}register_driver") we
inadvertantly created probing problems in the OF case.

The NIU driver creates a dummy platform device to represent the
board that contains one or more child NIU devices.  Unfortunately
we use the same name, "niu", as the OF device driver itself uses.

The result is that we try to probe the dummy "niu" parent device we
create, and since it has a NULL ofdevice pointer etc. everything
explodes:
