Up to now efi_dp_from_lo() only could return the initrd or fdt device-path.
Allow returning the binary device-path to.

Why do we need this?

In patch 14/14 I add this line:

+       dp = efi_get_dp_from_boot(NULL);

The binary path indicates the partition on which to search for the default dtb as indicated by $fdtfile.

I should have added an explanation in the commit message.

Best regards

Heinrich
