If that is of concern I can get it added. Let me know.

Why don't you do that with QEMU?

If we want sandbox to do this, I could add a way for sandbox to select
its architecture. But this patch is correct, sorry. It is basically a
revert of your patch:

3a0654ecd0d efi_loader: correctly identify binary name

Let me know if you would like a selection mechanism and I'll see what I can do.
