I've been using memtest86, not memtest86+, on UEFI using chainload instead of
linux, via the following stanza:

menuentry "memtest86 8.3 EFI" {
        search --no-floppy --label --set=root ZM2P01ESP
        chainloader /mt83x64.efi
}

# ls -n /boot/efi/*efi
-rwxr-xr-x 1 0 0 1243032 Nov 22  2019 /boot/efi/mt83x64.efi

Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion,
        based on faith, not based on science.
