When using other platform architectures, in the init of the qcom_scm
driver, of_node_put is called on /firmware if no qcom dt is found.
This results in a kernel error: Bad of_node_put() on /firmware.

The call to of_node_put from the qcom_scm init is unnecessary as
of_find_matching_node is calling it automatically.

Remove this of_node_put().

Fixes: d0f6fa7ba2d6 ("firmware: qcom: scm: Convert SCM to platform driver")

Change since v1, remove the curly brackets as if statement becomes a
one liner.

Sure. But there's another of_node_put(fw_np) in this function, so
why isn't that also removed? Assuming of_find_matching_node() is
calling of_node_put() on what's passed in, then the node is going
to get put twice in the "working" case.

Agreed, I had a look and this second call to of_node_put(fw_np) seem to
be unnecessary as well. Unfortunately I can't test your suggestion as I
am using another platform arch. I am just testing that this driver does
not break my arch.
I can submit a v3 removing this of_node_put as well if you want.
