Store the loopback device as data on loopback grub_disk structures,
...
rather than the file it points to. This fixes use of freed memory
if an existing loopback device is replaced.
* grub-core/disk/loopback.c (grub_loopback_open): Store dev in
disk->data, not dev->file.
(grub_loopback_read): Adjust file assignment to match.
Fixes Ubuntu bug #742967 .
