Minor nit: I'd just say "Don't allow linking to a disabled supplier".

This if block looks very similar to the one right after the loop.
Maybe there's a nice way to combine it?

If you replace this if block with this, it'll end up with the same result.
if (!of_device_is_available(sup_np)) {
        of_node_put(sup_np);
        sup_np = NULL;
}

of_get_next_parent() handles a NULL input properly. So that won't be a
problem. And "No device" is a valid statement for both cases I think.

However, not against this patch as is if Rob/Frank like it as is.
