I think I explained in the past:
The current *secure boot* feature in U-Boot assumes that a single
command without any arguments be invoked. See cli_secure_boot_cmd()
in common/cli.c.

This patch is not essential in this patch series, so it's up to you
if it's merged or not.
I will re-visit this issue when I submit *secure boot* patch.
