to_of_node() macro checks whether the fwnode_handle passed to it is not an OF node, and if so, returns NULL in order to be NULL-safe. Otherwise it returns the pointer to the OF node which the fwnode_handle contains. The problem with returning NULL is that its type was void *, which sometimes matters. Explicitly return struct device_node * instead. Make a similar change to of_fwnode_handle() as well.
