LBA as an abbreviation of logical block address is in common use. And makes it

Normal mode ls leaks disk handles because it doesn't close files properly.
grub_vsprintf doesn't terminate a string it passes to grub_strtoul.

to grub_uint32_t and grub_uint16_t without ensuring correct alignment of the
pointers. This does not work on ARM. Fixed by:

Most of what GRUB uses is under "OS".
