Eval the following twice:

   (display-buffer (get-buffer-create "abc") '(display-buffer-at-bottom))

Should see two windows showing buffer "abc". Is this a bug or feature?

My expectation is display-buffer should do nothing if the buffer is
displayed already.

It behaves that way in Emacs 25.1.  The Emacs 24.5 behavior relies on
the caller to explicitly ask for reusing an existing window.
