Well we still have Arthur Marsh' bug open that search --fs-uuid fails
with right UUID even though ls (hdx,y) shows it.

https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?26834
Also on Debian BTS and Launchpad.

The good thing though is that only a grub_errno = GRUB_ERR_NONE; needs
to be commited to have this fixed.
Unfortunately he attached the full kern/device.c to the report not the
patch Vladimir made for him.
