Remove the 'Probably dfu_alt_info not defined' message.
Instead write a warning if the variable contains no entities.

Do you want to return EFI_SUCCESS here?
It is mandatory that "dfu_alt_info" be defined so that the current
FMP drivers should work.
So if the variable is not defined, I think,
efi_firmware_[fit|raw]_get_image_info() should fail.
Even if it returns EFI_SUCCESS, descriptor_count should be set to zero.

This patch did not change the return value. It only removed superfluous messages that I saw everytime I used the sandbox.

For dfu_num == 0 we are returning EFI_SUCCESS. If the number is 0 due to the content of dfu_alt_info or due to its absence, should not make a difference in the return code. Writing a message if dfu_alt_info exists but contains no entity seems reasonable.

If you think EFI_SUCCESS is not correct in both cases, please, send a followup patch for review.

Best regards

Heinrich
