I am not sure I fully understand the newly added (!dt && size).

I think it's for the case when the initial addition results in something
like 0xfffffffe and the ALIGN(dt, 4) makes dt become 0, right?

I think dt being zero is a an error anyway, so what is the && size good
for?

When dt is zero it is returned here which will be considered an error by
the caller anyway, so it seems the (!dt && size) check doesn't add
anything.

Note we have dt_struct_advance() twice in the tree. Care to fix the
other place as well?
