There's a risk GRUB stops booting, but according to your report it doesn't
already.

Please do the following, in this order:

  - Update GRUB by running "grub-install /dev/sda".  Check if this fixed
    the problem.

  - Create a BIOS Boot Partition, and run grub-install again.  This is highly
    recommended when installing on GPT labels.  For details see:

    then check if this fixed the problem.
