Where is that patch - I don't see it in the series.

As it is, moving the files in a different patch to the group file
changes breaks xfstests. One of the things I made sure of was that
after each patch, the entire set of tests still ran properly with
something like "./check -g auto", and this separation looks lik eit
breaks that.

As it is, nobody is going to review a patch that has a diffstat of
+/-80,000 lines, which means it's irrelevant if it is in another
patch or not. As such, you don't need to send such patches as traditional diffs -
the git aware diff format is far better for this and easy to review
even whenteh file movement in is the same patch. See

http://oss.sgi.com/archives/xfs/2012-07/msg00389.html

To see how i sent this previously.

You are using git (though a very old version), so you should be bale
to get patches output in the correct manner...

-Dave.
