The group is supposed to be copied to the user, but it wasn't assigned
until after the copy_to_user().  Move the "s.num = group;" earlier.

Thanks for the patch!

IIUC this was in my tree for next, but more testing
and review found issues (like this one) so I dropped it for now.
Yes, that's fixed in v5.
