Currently efi_locate_device looks for a device supporting a

Obviously looking for a network protocol in a block device or
its parents does not make sense.
With the patch efi_locate_device returns the device if it supports
the protocol. Otherwise it returns the fist device it can find
supporting the protocol.
That patch seems to completely negate the purpose of the existing
efi_locate_device() function. What is it that you are trying to achieve?
