Well, it looks like the intention of that code was to just behave like 
there was no relevant node in the case the CONFIG_OF was disabled:

	np = of_find_matching_node(NULL, psci_of_match);
	if (!np)
		return 0;

If of_find_matching() node behaved like of_match_node() then nothing 
would be 'broken' per se, but we would have a bunch of useless code 
compiled in to our kernel.

Indeed, despite the clarification above, I think it'd be fine to not 
build these without CONFIG_OF.

I'm happy to submit a patches to add dependencies on CONFIG_OF for 
ARM_ARCH_TIMER and ARM_PSCI - I don't think either of those will get any 
complaints because as you say, neither makes very much sense without a 
DT to specify them.

Thanks,
Jonny
