This is needed in case the Linux kernel is compiled with CONFIG_KERNEL_XZ or
CONFIG_KERNEL_LZO rather than CONFIG_KERNEL_GZ (gzio is already loaded by
grub.cfg today).

This allows the controversial "recovery mode" text to be customised.

This is used for non-recovery Linux entries only; it enables
flicker-free booting if gfxpayload=keep is in use and a suitable kernel
is present.

Patch-Name: vt_handoff.patch
If other operating systems are installed, then automatically unhide the
menu. Otherwise, if GRUB_HIDDEN_TIMEOUT is 0, then use keystatus if
available to check whether Shift is pressed. If it is, show the menu,
otherwise boot immediately. If keystatus is not available, then fall
back to a short delay interruptible with Escape.
This may or may not remain Ubuntu-specific, although it's not obviously
wanted upstream. It implements a requirement of
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/DesktopExperienceTeam/KarmicBootExperienceDesignSpec#Bootloader.
If the previous boot failed (defined as failing to get to the end of one
of the normal runlevels), then show the boot menu regardless.

Patch-Name: quick_boot.patch
If this option is enabled, then do all of the following:
Don't display introductory message about line editing unless we're
actually offering a shell prompt. (This is believed to be a workaround
for a different bug. We'll go with this for now, but will drop this in
favour of a better fix upstream if somebody figures out what that is.)
Don't clear the screen just before booting if we never drew the menu in
the first place.
Remove verbose messages printed before reading configuration. In some
ways this is awkward because it makes debugging harder, but it's a
requirement for a smooth-looking boot process; we may be able to do
better in future. Upstream doesn't want this, though.
Disable the cursor as well, for similar reasons of tidiness.
Suppress kernel/initrd progress messages, except in recovery mode.
Suppress "GRUB loading" message unless Shift is held down. Upstream
doesn't want this, as it makes debugging harder. Ubuntu wants it to
provide a cleaner boot experience.

If configured with --enable-ubuntu-recovery, also set nomodeset for
recovery mode, and disable 'set gfxpayload=keep' even if the system
normally supports it. See

Improve prepare_grub_to_access_device to emit appropriate commands for
such filesystems, and ignore them in Linux grub.d scripts.
This is needed for Ubuntu's Wubi installation method.
This patch isn't inherently Debian/Ubuntu-specific. losetup and
/proc/mounts are Linux-specific, though, so we might need to refine this
before sending it upstream. The changes to the Linux grub.d scripts
might be better handled by integrating 10_lupin properly instead.
Patch-Name: mkconfig_loopback.patch
Setting gfxpayload=keep has been known to cause efifb to be
inappropriately enabled. In any case, with the current Linux kernel the
result of this option is that early kernelspace will be unable to print
anything to the console, so (for example) if boot fails and you end up
dumped to an initramfs prompt, you won't be able to see anything on the
screen. As such it shouldn't be enabled by default in Debian, no matter
what kernel options are enabled.
gfxpayload=keep is a good idea but rather ahead of its time ...

Patch-Name: gfxpayload_keep_default.patch
If root filesystem is multidev btrfs, do not attempt to pass all devices as
kernel root= argument. This results in splitting command line in GRUB due to
embedded newline and even if we managed to quote it, kernel does not know how
to interpret it anyway. Multidev btrfs requires user space device scanning,
so passing single device would not work too.
This still respects user settings GRUB_DISABLE_LINUX_UUID. Not sure what we
should do in this case.

it extracted from a shell file, but these really are c-format).
