[U-Boot] [PATCH 0/4] efi_loader: PXE boot support

One of the most common boot cases with EFI on arm64 is to boot from the
network using PXE boot. While TianoCore implements that just fine, we
were lacking support for it in U-Boot so far.

But no longer! Here is a patch set, enabling PXE booting of EFI payloads.
With this patch set, I was successfully able to automatically boot our
normal (usually used with TianoCore based systems) environment to boot
and run grub2 and a kernel from there with U-Boot.

  efi_loader: Add network access support
  bootp: Move vendor class identifier set to function
  net: Move the VCI and client arch values to Kconfig
  distro: Add efi pxe boot code
