Status in shim-signed package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Using the applications such as fwupdate and efibootmgr to set the device path for the second stage path is not working on some platforms.
  The second stage set is not working after commit
  3322257e611e2000f79726d295bb4845bbe449e7 on https://github.com/rhinstaller/shim
  for those which load option only have one string.

  This is due to some versions of BDS, on loadoption we only get:
