I do add it with that name but that doesn't prevent it from getting a
duplicate probe when the namespace is evaluated (much later).

The sequence with ECDT is:
acpi_attach()
acpi_ec_ecdt_probe()
    if ECDT present
       device_add_child("acpi_ec")
       device_probe_and_attach()
           acpi_ec_probe()
               if ECDT magic set in ivars
                  done
           acpi_ec_attach()
               allocate resources
...
namespace started
...
walk all devices, _STA, _INI
    acpi_ec_probe()    <===== same device as already probed above
        if lookup devclass finds duplicate for _UID
            ENXIO; don't attach again
