[PATCH 0/1] OvmfPkg PlatformBootManagerLib: Move TryRunningQemuKernel()

["Christoph Willing" <chris.willing@linux.com>]

Use of Qemu's -kernel option (thus also -initrd & -append) is currently not
working correctly under UEFI boot. The nominated kernel is loaded and the
initrd is opened successfully but there is no access to the VM filesystem.
Booting without the -kernel option i.e. using the VM's internal kernel & intird
works as expected with UEFI.

This behaviour has been observed in all of the four Linux systems tested for
verification.

The commit at which this behaviour appears  has been identified and the patch
proposed here just reverses it i.e. we now run TryRunningQemuKernel() after
PlatformBdsConnectSequence() instead of before it. When the proposed patch is
applied, all four systems are subsequently able to boot correctly under UEFI.
