Well the only doubt I have is what if GRUB has to extend some PCRs before 
calling Linux? Any idea if it's currently calling ExitBootSevices?
I was considering if it would be a better idea to call the device unbinding during
some kind of "exit" from U-boot's EFI code. (i.e before StartImage)

Ok will do.
