tipc: reject attaching bearer of different media to the same occupied device

Currently, two bearers of different media types can be added to the
same device (e.g., "eth:eth0" and "ib:eth0") via tipc command:

tipc bearer enable media eth dev eth0
tipc bearer enable media ib dev eth0

For each command execution, tipc_enable_l2_media() is called:

tipc_enable_l2_media()
 dev_get_by_name()
  dev_hold()

As a result, device->dev_refcnt is incremented twice, but the second
bearer replaces the first one. This causes a leak in device->dev_refcnt.

Fix this by rejecting a bearer with a different media type when the
device is already occupied.
