[syslinux] ONERROR not triggered in PXELINUX 3.31 when ramdisk missing

Hello,

I tested some things, and found the following:

when the kernel image file is present, but the initrd image is not,
ONERROR is not called, and PXELINUX stays in the prompt forever ...

Other error scenarios tested okay, a down/unresponding TFTP server can
lead to 15-20 minutes delay until all tried filenames timeout out ...

Just to let you know :)
