The name sounds way too generic. Unless we have plans to unify such
interface on multiple platforms, I would expect something like fw_cfg
(to match QEMU documentation) or even qemu_fw_cfg to make it pretty obvious.

Your patch adds "-v" option that is not documented here

QEMU supports fw_cfg at least on ARM (according to documentation), but I
guess this can be done later if needed.

QEMU also provdes MMIO interface, but again, can be added later. I
wonder if we could use ACPI interface to discover them here?

This option is not used anywhere. Also long options, please!

I would really prefer using options over positional parameters to make
it more extensible. One obvious extension would be --list to see
available files and --test to be able to verify in script whether file
exists.

QEMU documentation says that IOport selector register is little endian,
so this probably needs to be grub_cpu_to_le16_compile_time
(DIRECTORY_INDEX).

grub_cpu_to_le16 again.
