Just got fixed in mainline:

commit 00b2c76a6abbe082bb5afb89ee49ec325e9cd4d2
Author: David Howells <dhowells@xxxxxxxxxx>
Date: Thu Jan 23 15:54:02 2014 -0800

include/linux/of.h: make for_each_child_of_node() reference its
args when CONFIG_OF=n

Make for_each_child_of_node() reference its args when CONFIG_OF=n to
avoid warnings like:

drivers/leds/leds-pwm.c:88:22: warning: unused variable 'node'
[-Wunused-variable]
struct device_node *node = pdev->dev.of_node;
