Ok. Now I got it.

The above situation shouldn't happen if I put of_find_property() check
on the very beginning of this function (it returns NULL when DT support
is not compiled).

The function would look as follows:

int 
pwm_fan_of_get_cooling_data(struct device *dev, struct pwm_fan_ctx
*ctx) 
{       
        struct device_node *np = dev->of_node;
	int num, i, ret;

	if (!of_find_property(np, "cooling-levels", NULL))
		return 0;

	ret = of_property_count_u32_elems(np, "cooling-levels");
	if (ret <= 0) {
		dev_err(dev, "Wrong data!\n");
		return ret;
	}

	num = ret;
	ctx->pwm_fan_cooling_levels = devm_kzalloc(dev, num *
					sizeof(u32), GFP_KERNEL); 
	if (!ctx->pwm_fan_cooling_levels) 
		return -ENOMEM;

	ret = of_property_read_u32_array(np, "cooling-levels",
					 ctx->pwm_fan_cooling_levels,
					 num); 
	if (ret) {
		dev_err(dev, "Property 'cooling-levels' cannot be
			read!\n"); 
		return ret;
	}

	for (i = 0; i < num; i++) {
		if (ctx->pwm_fan_cooling_levels[i] > MAX_PWM) {
			dev_err(dev, "PWM fan state[%d]:%d > %d\n", i,
				ctx->pwm_fan_cooling_levels[i],
				MAX_PWM); 
			return -EINVAL;
		}
	}

	ctx->pwm_fan_max_state = num - 1;

	return 0;
}
