Although we correctly return various EFI exit codes depending on the file status (i.e EFI_NO_MEDIA, EFI_NOT_FOUND etc), the kernel loader only falls back to the cmdline interpreted initrd if the protocol is not installed. This creates a problem for EFI installers, since they won't be able to load their own initrd and start the installation. A following patch introduces a different logic where we search for an initrd path defined in an EFI variable named 'Initrd####'. If the bootmgr is used to launch the EFI payload, we'll will try to match the BootCurrent value and find the corresponding initrd (i.e Boot0000 -> Initrd0000 etc). If the file is found, we'll install the required protocol which the kernel's efi-stub can use and load our initrd.
