I missed that in my original review, but I think this change is wrong.
If you follow the goto out tag now instead of returning directly
there's a chance efi_locate_handle_buffer_int() will return
EFI_NOT_FOUND.  The goto out tag will convert that to EFI_SUCCESS
although it's an actual error.
This is what we intend to do. When there are no removable medias plug-in,
efi_locate_handle_buffer_int() will return EFI_NOT_FOUND.
And if we don't convert it to EFI_SUCCESS here,
efi_bootmgr_update_media_device_boot_option()
will return EFI_NOT_FOUND and then efi_init_obj_list() fails.
This leads to the efi init failure and it will just prompt 'Error:
Cannot initialize UEFI sub-system'
when you run any efidebug commands.

Regards,
Raymond

It was due to my reply
https://lore.kernel.org/u-boot/e951264b-f952-3e83-dacc-bbe2fa377...@gmx.de/
that Raymond moved the EFI_NOT_FOUND handling into this function. As
said non-availability of a file system on removable media should not
stop the initialization of the EFI sub-system or the probing of block
devices.

Why is efi_bootmgr_update_media_device_boot_option() not invoked when
block devices are removed?

Best regards

Heinrich
