[Launchpad Bug Tracker <1393575@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You have been subscribed to a public bug:

if you try to set the bootorder with a boot entry which is not displayed by efibootmgr but is shown in /sys/firmware/efi/efivars/Boo...
you  get an Oops and the bootorder is reset.
(Btw this seems the only way to boot from usb once you have installed linux in secureboot mode).
