This is not intentional. When this part of code was written there was no
set-default available at all so this couldn't be tested and I simply
followed the specification. It told to take root_tree and
root_dir_objectid from superblock then go to "default" directory. What
of this needs to be changed? Just remove "default" and make it part of
path? We would need to change grub-mkrelpath to match runtime behaviour.
Is there a way to detect that mountinfo gives garbage and somehow get
where the real root points?
