Public bug reported:
When USE_GRUB_CONFIG is set to "true" in /etc/default/kexec, reboot
hangs with scrambled screen somewhere on kernel load.
This is due to incorrect parsing of /boot/grub/grub.cfg performed in
/etc/init.d/kexec-load. In 12.10 grub.cfg contains submenues, which have
their own 'menuentry' records. Incorrect parsing brings wrong kernel
parameters (from the last record, which is 'recovery mode').
As grub.cfg is generated file, I would expect that kernel, initrd and
parameters are fetched with the same algorithm that generate grub.cfg.
