As you say, you can't vassalize a faction that's already a vassal to another faction. However, there are a few ways to go around the corner:
>Destroy the Master faction
A bit hard and long to do but all vassals will be available to be vassalized again
>Raze their last settlement
This will automatically break all agreements that faction has with other nations, including being a vassal. If you made sure they have a remaining army left, you let them get a settlement and then you can vassalize them, albeit in a destitute settlement.
>Create and then enslave rebel factions
This one is much easier to do. Suppose a single region faction that's already a vassal. You ruin their public order with raids and settlement sackings until the Rebel/Separationist faction appears and take the settlement. You can them vassalize the those rebels. If you don't like the Rebels for some reason, you can redo the process to have the OG faction appear to retake the settlement.
Also, beware of faction leader diplomacy traits like Rebellious, Opportunists, etc. as they will attack you even though they are your vassal.
