Re: loose brake disc
They are a spring type washer, bent into a U shape, may look like they are in half but actualy pushing the bobin so it does not rattle about.

Re: loose brake disk
I can't say if you should ride it like that, but I did for a week or so before I got the disc replaced under warrenty. Not really very helpful I realise, still if you are going to ride it be gentle!

Re: loose brake disc
If all "buttons" are present and correct, and in securely, and there happens to be a little movement between the carrier and the braking surface of the disc then it's ok to ride on for now. If any of the buttons which hold the 2 parts of the disc are missing or dammaged it is not ok.
