Coverity reports the 'size' may be used uninitialized, but that can't happen,
because the caller has checked "if (binfo->dtb_filename || binfo->get_dtb)"
before call 'load_dtb'.
Here we simply remove the 'if (binfo->get_dtb)' to satisfy coverity.

If we do this I would prefer it if we add a clarifying note to the
doc comment for load_dtb:
Must not be called unless have_dtb(binfo) is true.
thanks

Good idea! Will add this in v2, Thanks.
