DMA_OF depends on OF, and the driver depends on OF as it's stated
in the drivers/dma/Kconfig, so this is not an issue.

Next, is it possible here to get of_find_device_by_node() returning
NULL? I don't think so, and then it's unclear which problem is supposed
to be fixed by this change, and therefore the change should be dropped.

The list of declared/initialized local variables is deliberately sorted
in so called reverse Christmas tree order, please keep the sorting order.
