Not to mention what happens if there are 3 matching nodes.
Given that qmp_cooling_device is only 4 pointers why bother
allocating a pointer to it at all.
Just instantiate 2 of them in the outer structure.
No is going to notice 56 bytes - it is probably hidden in the
padding when the outer structure is allocated.

You should set count to 0 just before this loop - not at the top
of the function.
