The comment is valid for MB1, but not for MB2. Both regarding the

means there is a bug in the code here: An MB2 header is at least 16
bytes for the header magic plus at least 8 bytes for the mb2 header
termination tag. That adds up to 24 bytes for MB2, not 12 bytes as it
did for MB1.

I see, so there is at least that. Might be a good idea to fix it.

I fear you have missed that bytes and grub_uint32_t array elements are
not the same size.

I unfortunately did not notice the (grub_uint32_t *), I apologize for assuming that it increments by 2 bytes and not u32's. Wouldn't it be a lot cleaner if it just incremented it in bytes instead, since you could then also remove the division by 4 and the cast? It wouldn't make any difference runtime wise, just a bit easier to read.
