You'd need to ask Peter since it was changed from your suggestion to the
current printf() string in the following commit,

    pxe: revamp timeout, improve the unloading of gpxelinux
    
    Revamp the timeout mechanism, to deal with UDP stacks (like gPXE!)
    which lose transmit packets.  gPXE, in particular, will drop a UDP
    packet if it doesn't have the recipient in the ARP cache.
    Furthermore, it has the poor taste to not even send back an error.
    
    Also, always unload gPXE when present, before exiting.  This should
    let us clean up low memory better.  Reconsider if this turns out to be
    too slow.
