It was an editorial error, which also existed in v2 commit message.

You have an incorrect guid format, so env_set_efi() should
return CMD_RET_USAGE, but mistakenly returns CMD_RET_FAILURE.

Such a question should have been made before initially "-e" option
has been introduced a long time ago.

* As far as we have "-e" option, this new patch is a natural extension.
* Why do we have to reply on external apps? We should have a minimum
  self-contained command set to manage UEFI as part of U-Boot.
* "-i" is used in secure boot pytest.
