Those scattered pieces of disk are not very useful.  My suspicion is that
grub-setup has trashed your GPT metadata.  Can you verify that all your
partitions are still readable from real GRUB, and that files are accessible
as well? (from a rescue disk or so)

grub-fstest / grub-emu checks are not that reliable, since they might still
work because of the host OS disk cache.
