Title:
  chainloader (loop)/kernel.efi does not work

Status in grub2 package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  In UEFI, trying to do

  loopback loop /snaps/pc-kernel_323.snap
  chainloader (loop)/kernel.efi snapd_recovery_mode=$3 snapd_recovery=$4 $standard_params

  i.e. execute .efi binary from inside a snap, does not work

  it fails with "not a valid root device". Not sure why a valid root
  device is needed, as it seems that grub itself is reading the file and
  doesn't seem to pass the file_path externally.
