Currently the GRUB Manual has a few small issues captured in bug
reports (54480, 62004, and 65152). These are related to issues in
documentation for environment variables "pxe_default_server",
"pxe_default_gateway"; incorrect statement that "chainloader" does
not support secure boot; and an issue in network boot documentation
for the searched grub.cfg name.

These issues have been updated in the grub manual, grub.texi.

From user perspective, this patch improves /  corrects / clarifies
documentation around PXE, Secure Boot, and Network booting.

Changes in v4:
        - Correct patch titles for individual patches.
Changes in v3:
        - Split patches by bug report fixed.
        - Corrected "Closes" to "Fixes" in commits.
Changes in v2:
        - Regenerate patch against current master branch.

Andrew Hamilton (3):
  Correct documentation for pxe_default_server, pxe_default_gatway, and
    pxe_blksize. Only pxe_default_server is actually used (alias for
    net_default_server) so capture this, and remove the other two.
  Correct documentation for secure boot with UEFI to remove statement
    that chainloader does not work with secure boot, as this was added
    by a previous GRUB update.
  Correct the documentation for the grub.cfg searching via network that
    will be done based on a given MAC address (was missing the Ethernet
    Type - 01).
