This should have no impact on the object code at all, since everything
inside of the #ifdef is be dropped by the compiler anyway if
of_dma_controller_register is stubbed out.
I generally prefer to have all driver code be compiled all the time
to catch build regressions independent of the configuration, and leave
the #ifdefs in header files that provide the interfaces.

If you want to remove the "err != -ENODEV" check here, we could rewrite
this as
if (IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_OF)) && pdev->dev.of_node) {
err = of_dma_controller_register(pdev->dev.of_node,
dw_dma_of_xlate, dw);
if (err)
dev_err(&pdev->dev,
"could not register of_dma_controller\n");
}
Or alternatively, we can change the of_dma_controller_register() stub to
return 0 if CONFIG_OF is disabled. That would also take care of similar
code in other dma engine drivers.
