Are EFI variables already loaded when you hit this code?
Even if the variable Boot Order is not set we must boot EFI/BOOT/BOOT????.EFI.

They are in my case since I have some board code initializes the EFI subsystem early. But in general it would not. So I guess this would need a call to efi_init_obj_list().
Even if the variable Boot Order is not set we must boot EFI/BOOT/BOOT????.EFI.
That will still happen. If the efi_mgr method fails, standard boot will iterate over devices and use the efi method to boot from the default path.
if (bootorder) {
bflow->state = BOOTFLOWST_READY;
return 0;
}
return -EINVAL;
}

There is no device-tree with compatible "u-boot,efi-bootmgr". So this looks like dead code up to now. Please, provide a unit test.
@Simon Where is the documentation that describes the "u-boot,distro-efi" and "u-boot,efi-bootmgr" boot methods? Current doc/device-tree-bindings/bootmeth.txt is not sufficient and not included in the generated online documentation.
doc/device-tree-bindings/bootmeth.txt should be converted to yaml format so that it can be used for validation of device-trees.

Heinrich
