Public bug reported:

[Impact]
This is a regression in shim 15.4 that causes a crash in shim when chainbooting.

Also, the machine resets when you exit grub, rather than going back to
the EFI shell when launched from it.

[Test plan]

TODO for the chainboot, something similar to
https://github.com/lxc/lxd/issues/8770

For grub exit, we can easily launch VM and then EFI shell and then load
shim from in there, type exit in grub and should be back to EFI shell.

[Where problems could occur]
In exiting shim, failure to boot, etc.

** Affects: shim (Ubuntu)
