Details:

It's not posssible to chainload Windows PE loader with GRUB compiled from
up-to-date git source files.

It's not possible event with files included within CentOS:
grub2-efi-2.02-0.44.el7.centos.x86_64
grub2-efi-modules-2.02-0.44.el7.centos.x86_64
grub2-tools-2.02-0.44.el7.centos.x86_64
grub2-2.02-0.44.el7.centos.x86_64

I've also tested it with latest stable Debian used as a PXE server, using it's
own output of grub-mknetdir binary.

Debug logs are attached, GRUB compiled form git sources, current Centos 7 as
PXE server, HPE ProLiant ML350 Gen9 as PXE client.
