Shreyansh, shouldn't it be done in rte_bus.h?

Unfortunately it is still not very helpful. I don't understand circumstance
when the race condition could happen.

I see no point find bus by empty name. I would suggest to initialize
busname to NULL and simply would not even try to find bus with
such name. Just check above and generate appropriate log.
