[PATCH] efi_loader: file: set a backend block device for file operations

In the current implementation, set_blk_dev() is called in opening a file, but not in opening a directory. This will cause failures at succeeding directory operations as the "current" block device remains nullified. Adding set_blk_dev() fixes this issue.

In the 'true' path of the if statement is_dir() results in fs_type = FS_TYPE_ANY. It would be inconsistent to call set_blk_dev() here.
Which "succeeding directory operation" does not call set_blk_dev(fh)?
Where did you observe an error?

Ah, it would be better to fix my code as I had a mixed use of efi interface, open_volume(), and U-Boot interfaces, like fs_opendir()/ readdir().
