iPXE installs an EFI_LOAD_FILE_PROTOCOL. When loading a file via PXE it expects that LoadImage() uses this protocol for devices without simple file protocol.

Supporting the protocol is part of the UEFI SCT for LoadImage().

Implementation is missing in U-Boot v2019.07-rc1

Depending on the value of BootPolicy LoadImage should try the EFI_LOAD2_FILE protocol too.
