You're probably right, but this is how it's normally done.  If you're
going to scan child nodes manually, you have to skip disabled nodes.

If someone else wants to implement for_each_available_child_of_node(), I'm
all for it, but such a patch would not be merged until 3.7.  I was hoping
to have my patch applied to 3.6, since it fixes a real bug.
