You can do it this way:

devclass_t nexusdc = devclass_find("nexus");
device_t nexus = devclass_get_device(nexusdc, 0);

It is in fact in the code path as "parent" in nexus_pcib_identify,
but not in the special PCI bridge identification function. If you
call BUS_ADD_CHILD at that time, you don't need to probe or attach
your device; it will be automatically probed and attached later and
you can whatever logic you want in your probe and attach routines.
