MdeModulePkg/UefiBootManagerLib: Match the nested partitions
In some cases, such as MD RAID1 in Linux, the bootloader may be in a nested EFI system partition partition. For example, sda1 and sdb1 are combined as md0 and the first partition of md0, md0p1, is an EFI system partition. Then, the bootloader can be located by the following device paths: PCI()/SATA(sda)/Partition(sda1)/Partition(md0p1)/File(bootloader.efi) PCI()/SATA(sdb)/Partition(sdb1)/Partition(md0p1)/File(bootloader.efi) To make the boot option more resilient, we may create a boot option with the short-form device path like "Partition(md0p1)/File(bootloader.efi)". However, BmMatchPartitionDevicePathNode() only matched the first partition node and ignored the nested partitions, so the firmware would refuse to load bootloader.efi since "Partition(md0p1)" doesn't match either "Partition(sda1)" or "Partition(sda2)". This commit modifies BmMatchPartitionDevicePathNode() to iterate all nested partitions so that the above boot option could work. v2 - Simplify the node matching logic Cc: Ruiyu Ni <ruiyu.ni@intel.com> Cc: Star Zeng <star.zeng@intel.com> Cc: Jian J Wang <jian.j.wang@intel.com> Cc: Hao Wu <hao.a.wu@intel.com> Contributed-under: TianoCore Contribution Agreement 1.1 Signed-off-by: Gary Lin <glin@suse.com> Reviewed-by: Ray Ni <ray.ni@intel.com>
