Here is the one call of bootflow_show outside of where show_bootflow is
called today, and bootflow_show is called by the end of this series.

Nothing in the rest of this test is checking the output of strings, and
nor should it since the test is checking the struct itself to be as
expected. Am I missing something? If not, I don't think we should bother
with the previous patch.
