In the !CONFIG_OF case, replace the of_match_node() macro implementation by a static function. This ensures drivers calling of_match_node() can be COMPILE_TESTed. include/linux/of.h declares of_match_node() like this: #ifdef CONFIG_OF extern const struct of_device_id *of_match_node( const struct of_device_id *matches, const struct device_node *node); #else #define of_match_node(_matches, _node) NULL #endif When used inside an expression, those two implementations behave truly differently. The macro implementation has (at least) two pitfalls: - Arguments are removed by the preprocessor meaning they do not appear to the compiler. This can give "defined but not used" warnings. - The returned value type is (void *) versus (const struct of_device_id *). It works okay if the value is stored in a variable, thanks to C's implicit void pointer casting rules. It causes build errors if used like `of_match_data(...)->data`.
