Not sure how to answer this.

The system worked before mis-fortunately pressing upgrade to 16.04
what happened next was done by the installer and packages so as a user there is very little to do about this.

Anyway here is how my "du /boot" looks like:

4	/boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu/fw
72	/boot/efi/EFI/ubuntu
76	/boot/efi/EFI
80	/boot/efi
3284	/boot/grub/x86_64-efi
2352	/boot/grub/fonts
20	/boot/grub/locale
8080	/boot/grub
166988	/boot
