Those scattered pieces of disk are not very useful.  My suspicion is that
grub-setup has trashed your GPT metadata.  Can you verify that all your
partitions are still readable from real GRUB, and that files are accessible
as well? (from a rescue disk or so)

grub-fstest / grub-emu checks are not that reliable, since they might still
work because of the host OS disk cache.

  The DRM opt-in fallacy: "Your data belongs to us. We will decide when (and
  how) you may access your data; but nobody's threatening your freedom: we
  still allow you to remove your data and not access it at all."
