[gdal-dev] Removing Nodata pixels from raster

In SAGA GIS there is a "Crop to Data" module (in Grid Tools module 
library), which performs the task.

But this would require you to import your Geotif with the GDAL import 
module, process it in SAGA, and finally export it as Geotif again with 
the GDAL export module.

Best regards,
Volker
