This is duplicating code in do_efi_boot_add(). Please, consider putting
the following codeblock into separate function:

         id = (int)simple_strtoul(argv[1], &endp, 16);
         if (*endp != '\0' || id > 0xffff)
                 return CMD_RET_USAGE;

         sprintf(var_name, "Boot%04X", id);
         p = var_name16;
         utf8_utf16_strncpy(&p, var_name, 9);

try_load_entry() has another implementation.

Best regards

Heinrich
