This is surely a matter of opinion, but CONFIG_BOOTDELAY=0 is kind of
nasty; it makes it nearly impossible to debug from a u-boot prompt if
needed. The default is probably "2" ... long enough to actually
interrupt it, but short enough that it shouldn't cause huge delays in
the boot process...

I know grub-efi will add it's own delay, so in a working environment,
this just seems like an additional two seconds, but u-boot's EFI
implementation is changing often enough that I wouldn't be surprised if
you need to occasionally debug something.
