OK, so I have optimised it away. What I am doing now is always reading
to straight to hdr[], and if the caller passes hdr == NULL, then hdr
is set to a local buffer (and the full header read is still skipped as
per current logic).

Added:
+
+/** load_elf_hdr:
+ * @filename: Path of ELF file
+ * @hdr: Buffer to populate with header data. Header data will not be
+ * filled if set to NULL.
+ * @is64: Set to true if the ELF is 64bit. Ignored if set to NULL
+ * @errp: Populated with an error in failure cases
+ *
+ * Inspect as ELF file's header. Read its full header contents into a
+ * buffer and/or determine if the ELF is 64bit.
+ */
