I'm curious why you would want to treat them as invalid uuids? I don't
really see use value for it. Usually the uuids are copy-pasted from
some other program. I prefer not to care how that other program formats
them.

As was mentioned on another thread and not mentioned in my feedback, it
would be more ideal to put the code for extracting UUIDs from GPT and
MBR partition which is here and in probe into a common place. Perhaps
in grub-core/kern/partition.c in a function call
grub_partition_get_uuid (). If the partition does not support uuid, then
return NULL.

Also, the list convention is to have new patch versions on their own
thread. So no need to thread it on to this thread.

Yes, the complete patch should be sent as well. Those options can show
changes between patch versions in such as way that it is ignored when
importing the patch. Its just helpful for reviewers.
