Could you explain? Grub does
grub_enter_normal
grub_normal_execute
grub_show_menu
grub_cmdline_run
if after processing config file there are no menu entries we do not
even call grub_show_menu. And even if we do, after return from it there
is mandatory authentication in grub_cmdline_run.
I see how it could happen in original commit when authentication was
added, but I miss code path that cause it now.
