You're missing support for exposing iPXE's SAN devices via 
EFI_BLOCK_IO_PROTOCOL.  This is the only major feature not yet supported 
under UEFI.  I have an unfinished out-of-tree implementation which 
basically works, but is awaiting sufficient free time (or funding) to 
get it ready for inclusion.
