efi_load_pe() copies and rebases the UEFI image. We do not need the buffer with the file contents afterwards.

Are you sure? This code is what you added in your recent commit 0e18f584de59 ("efi_loader: LoadImage: always allocate new pages") at v2019.04-rc2.

I had that now rejected patch '[U-Boot,RFC,1/1] efi_loader: in situ relocation' in mind. Maybe I should add a 'Fixes' tag pointing to 0e18f584de59.

If the caller provides a source buffer, we should not delete it. But we there is also no need to copy it here because it is duplicated by the relocation code.

If we read from file we need a receiving buffer, but we can delete it once we have completed relocation.

IMO, the comment:

...

/* In this case, file_path is the "device" path, i.e.
 * something like a HARDWARE_DEVICE:MEMORY_MAPPED

is also not accurate because "file_path" is normally non-NULL, indicating where the content of "source_buffer" comes from. In other words, "HARDWARE_DEVICE:MEMORY_MAPPED" is a quite irregular case.

Yes, the comment can be updated. "HARDWARE_DEVICE:MEMORY_MAPPED" is only what we do in do_bootefi as workaround in some cases.
