see hint below.

U-Boot does not implement the EFI_DISK_IO_PROTOCOL. So you will not be
able to run U-Boot as an EFI app loaded by U-Boot which might be nice
for testing.

The more basic protocol is the EFI_BLOCK_IO_PROTOCOL. The difference is
that the EFI_BLOCK_IO_PROTOCOL requires using a properly aligned buffer.

If you want to find all handles implementing a protocol, you can use
EFI_BOOT_SERVICES.LocateHandleBuffer() with SearchType ByProtocol.

I guess we should add this patch to U-Boot once it is completed.
