Because of this I'd really prefer if we could hold off on adding groups,

sure - if you rush you can make it into Daves 2.6.23; then both can
conform at the same time.

I think I'd prefer if we just returned an error. See, we aren't going to
run out of groups in the foreseeable future, and if we ever have users
that generate *a lot* of groups we can still add the sharing code etc.
For now it seems just bloat and a code path we won't ever touch so prone
to errors in it.

Ok, you are doing the coding and i dont have strong opinions on either;
so go for it.

Ok :) Though I'm not sure I understood the suggestion of sending just
one TLV, what should I send? 

I meant when user space asks the controller "please tell me details
about family X" you will always pass an id and name. Never just one.
So why not just send that in a struct which has a id/name (as you
already have defined in your current patch).
