This patch has two problems. I intentionally did not depend on the size
returned by stat:

- Some tftp servers do not support returning the size
- When the zImage is on a flash partition always the whole partition
  will be read even if the zImage is much smaller.

I suggest going another way here. Read the zImage as we do now and try
to read further. If it succeeds and the result is a devicetree then read
it. The devicetree also contains a totalsize field (see include/fdt.h)
