They don't look wrong, but here are the contents of /sys/firmware/efi:

config_table, efivars/, esrt/, fw_platform_size, fw_vendor, runtime,
runtime-map/, systab, vars/

and here is my config.scm:

;; This is an operating system configuration generated
;; by the graphical installer.

(use-modules (gnu))
(use-service-modules desktop networking ssh xorg)

(operating-system

      (target "/boot/efi")
      (keyboard-layout keyboard-layout)))
