[bug #42466] GRUB cannot load symlinks of length 60 on ext4

[KOVACS Krisztian]

Follow-up Comment #3, bug #42466 (project grub):

So do you have any suggestion how a proper fix would work?

I've tried fixing the off-by-one so it works correctly with the most popular
and widespread implementation of ext4.

A fix based on block counts seems less straightforward to me -- even though it
seems that setting extended attributes on symbolic links is not supported
(http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/16537/extended-attribute-on-symbolic-link).
