I cloned this repo (more precisely, for the time  being, your repo:
git://git.kraxel.org/ipxe qemu), and checked the two patches in
24112d91..87981bb6:

ca65a1f efi_snp: improve compliance with the
        EFI_SIMPLE_NETWORK_PROTOCOL spec
87981bb [efi] make load file protocol optional

They look good. They are the other two patches (in total: 3 patches)
that we need for PXE booting with OVMF. These patches have been
submitted to ipxe-devel several times (thank you for that),
unfortunately eliciting no feedback. So it's justified to carry them here.
