A refcount issue can appeared in __fwnode_link_del() due to the
pr_debug() call:

Indeed, an of_node is destroyed and so, of_node_release() is called
because the of_node refcount reached 0.
of_node_release() calls fwnode_links_purge() to purge the links and
ended with __fwnode_link_del() calls.
__fwnode_link_del calls pr_debug() to print the fwnodes (of_nodes)
involved in the link and so this call is done while one of them is no
more available (ie the one related to the of_node_release() call)
Remove the pr_debug() call to avoid the use of the links fwnode while
destroying the fwnode itself.
