[PATCH 2/2 v2] second attempt to fix using grub device name as install device

[Andrey Borzenkov]

grub-install already resolved passed install device to grub device. So do the
same as grub-setup and strip parenthesis if we get legacy (hdX).

+       Revert commit 69ca97c820, it caused failures when using OS device name
+       in grub-install. Instead just strip off parenthesis in grub-install     
        if (hdX) was passed.
