Public bug reported:

systemd-stub fails to boot when loaded via peimage.

This is because peimage internally allocates an ImageHandle for images
it starts and loads. systemd-stub  will then pass its own ImageHandle as
ParentImageHandle to the firmware's LoadImage() function to load and
start the embedded Linux kernel.

The UEFI spec doesn't elaborate on this being allowed or not, but it
seems like edk2 firmwares try to locate private data attached to such a
ParentImageHandle, then asserts.

** Affects: grub2-unsigned (Ubuntu)
