Mantic is almost EOL, so I don't think any GRUB backports will be
happening, and HTTP boot is rarely used with interim releases anyhow.

Bug description:
  The transition from GRUB 2.06 to GRUB 2.12 didn't originally include
  the UEFI protocol based network stack required for UEFI HTTP booting,
  this made UEFI HTTP boot support non-functional.

  The patches were forward ported later, and are currently waiting to be
  merged on Debian Salsa (https://salsa.debian.org/grub-
  team/grub/-/merge_requests/37). Without these patches, UEFI HTTP boot
  remains non-functional on GRUB 2.12.
