[PATCH v2] chainloader: Fix wrong break condition (must be AND not, OR) |

The definition of bpb's num_total_sectors_16 and num_total_sectors_32
is that either the 16-bit field is non-zero and is used (in which case
eg mkfs.fat sets the 32-bit field to zero), or it is zero and the
32-bit field is used. Therefore, a BPB is invalid only if *both*
fields are zero; having one field as zero and the other as non-zero is
the case to be expected. (Indeed, according to Microsoft's specification
one of the fields *must* be zero, and the other non-zero.)
This affects all users of grub_chainloader_patch_bpb which are in
chainloader.c, freedos.c, and ntldr.c
Some descriptions of the semantics of these two fields:
https://www.win.tue.nl/~aeb/linux/fs/fat/fat-1.html
> The old 2-byte fields "total number of sectors" and "number of
> sectors per FAT" are now zero; this information is now found in
> the new 4-byte fields.
(Here given in the FAT32 EBPB section but the total sectors 16/32 bit
fields semantic is true of FAT12 and FAT16 too.)
https://wiki.osdev.org/FAT#BPB_.28BIOS_Parameter_Block.29
> 19 | 2 | The total sectors in the logical volume. If this value is 0,
> it means there are more than 65535 sectors in the volume, and the actual
> count is stored in "Large Sectors (bytes 32-35).
> 32 | 4 | Large amount of sector on media. This field is set if there
> are more than 65535 sectors in the volume.
(Doesn't specify what the "large" field is set to when unused, but as
mentioned mkfs.fat sets it to zero then.)

> 0x13 | WORD | 0x0000 |
> Small Sectors . The number of sectors on the volume represented in 16
> bits (< 65,536). For volumes larger than 65,536 sectors, this field
> has a value of zero and the Large Sectors field is used instead.
> 0x20 | DWORD | 0x01F03E00 |
> Large Sectors . If the value of the Small Sectors field is zero, this
> field contains the total number of sectors in the FAT16 volume. If the
> value of the Small Sectors field is not zero, the value of this field
> is zero.

> BPB_TotSec16 | 19 | 2 |
> This field is the old 16-bit total count of sectors on the volume.
> This count includes the count of all sectors in all four regions of the
> volume. This field can be 0; if it is 0, then BPB_TotSec32 must be
> non-zero. For FAT32 volumes, this field must be 0. For FAT12 and
> FAT16 volumes, this field contains the sector count, and
> BPB_TotSec32 is 0 if the total sector count “fits” (is less than
> 0x10000).
> BPB_TotSec32 | 32 | 4 |
> This field is the new 32-bit total count of sectors on the volume.
> This count includes the count of all sectors in all four regions of the
> volume. This field can be 0; if it is 0, then BPB_TotSec16 must be
> non-zero. For FAT32 volumes, this field must be non-zero. For
> FAT12/FAT16 volumes, this field contains the sector count if
> BPB_TotSec16 is 0 (count is greater than or equal to 0x10000).
(This specifies that an unused BPB_TotSec32 field is set to zero.)
