Been too long to remember why I went with 's' - although I wonder if it had to do with "unsetting" the value... I do believe I should have gone with my first instincts on this and should have made the design around allowing the user to define a group number to use and then convert that into a group name string with a static prefix and the number <sigh>.
The way other options (like _max options, or the _bytes,_iops) work like this *because* they need to be set either all or none. The group_name can be set or not set by itself, no need for other options as there is no clash if you just update that. You also can't set it to what you got from QEMU, because QEMU can change it automatically; if you have no block I/O throttle set at all then there is no group, when you set anything the group name defaults to the id of the device (that way it is unique and it works like there is no group). The same way if you then want to reset it, without changing the group name, you can't set everything to zeroes and then group name to the same string, it will be reset anyway. So group name should've had a different treatment than the other options.
ACK with that change. John
