Hi,

thanks for your patch.

What exactly do you mean by "deepest"? The specification says that the
entries should be under /loader/entries of $BOOT or $EFI partition [1].

There is also a note:
"""""""""
In all cases the /loader/entries/ directory should be located directly
in the root of the ESP or XBOOTLDR filesystem. Specifically, the
/loader/entries/ directory should not be located under the /EFI/
subdirectory on the ESP.
"""""""""

So searching in subdirs seems not to be spec compatible. May I ask why
your loader entries are within some subdir in the first place?

Regards,
  Marco
