Setting use-cached to zero in the DHCP packet won't override
gpxelinux.0's default setting it to 1.

Sending a different filename to gpxelinux.0 won't actually do
anything; gpxelinux.0 always runs its embedded PXELINUX. So you
actually need to set PXELINUX-specific option 209/210 (configuration
file path) in the original DHCP packet. There's more information on
this available in the PXELINUX documentation. You should have no need
to do the busid check in dhcpd.conf.
