Using 2 lines for output might break any existing users.

Are there any?

It's a multiline file if you have more than one blockgroup; this just makes it
so that you don't have to special-case BG 0.

IOW: mb_groups scripts already had to parse multiple lines, and most likely any
script parsing it would inject a newline after the header.

And existing scripts might do that now and might fail
to do properly after this change.

I've no dog in this fight really.  I just wanted to make
it clear that this could cause existing scripts to fail.

proc output is supposed to be unchanging except maybe
adding new fields to existing lines.

Your choice.

Or they might have sed -e 's/]#0/]\n#0/g' in which case they won't be affected.

Ted's, really.  I have no idea which scripts do with various per-fs /proc
files.  Usually poking in mb_groups is only done as part of failure report data
collection to see what's mucked up the fs this time.

Anyway, I'll defer to the maintainer. :)

I suspect that any scripts which handled this in the past probably didn't
even notice and just missed the bg=0 line at the end of the header.  Users
looking at the output probably saw it line-wrapped by the terminal and
didn't notice either.

I think it makes sense to accept the patch, since I doubt any scripts will be broken, and it is the "right thing to do" rather than perpetuate a bug.

Perhaps it also would make sense to add some text
