I did some digging, and it seems that:

1. Upstream has not accepted a patch from redhat to strip the priority tags [1]
2. RHEL (and consequently centos) are patching ipxe directly [2], [3].

Based on this, I think this patch could potentially be ported into ipxe in Ubuntu, however, I think there should be some investigation into the network as to why packets are not stripped on egress.
