This pointer was not used after its last update. This variable assignment was most likely a vestige artifact of the earlier versions of the patch set that have led to 5891c7a8ed8f. This pointer update is useless, so let's remove it. It removes one call to pgstat_dsa_init_size(), making the code slightly easier to grasp.
