Should np be checked before use? I'm not sure if it's better to do the
assign first and then the check on np before use. It depends on the
consequences of passing a NULL node pointer later on.

The np is actually dev->of_node (or left NULL, as set at the begging).
The only meaning of the line above is to increment the counter and then
decrement if CONFIG_OF_DYNAMIC was used.
The devfreq_cooling_register() has np = NULL and the registration can
handle it, so we should be OK here as well.

+ if (np)
+ of_node_put(np);

Otherwise it looks good to me:
