I've merged below changes[1]. As other two patches[2] need more changes, so how
about we add it into doc by "[PATCH 05/12] README: document _begin_fstests
better"? Or I can send another documentation patch to do that next week :) I
hope to fix this regression issue today, due to it's been 2 weeks since we
brought in it.

Sorry, I didn't notice that either, until I tried to write a new case.
When you have any better idea to replace the current group list method,
feel free to share :)

Thanks,
