Ok, will take a look at this now and respond more on this.

ok, i can send this fix separately then. Otherwise, Will was suggesting on the
other thread that there should probably be a separate API to increment
the group refcount or get the group from the existing aliasing device.
As per me adding the api, looks like another option or post the above ?
