Can you please stop sending these review comment replies and then
immediately turning around and sending the next revision of the patch
series. I doubt that the changes take less than an hour to write and it
would be helpful for everyone involved to have constructive discussions
about the code if there's ever a response besides "done" or "ok".

In this case it should be possible to get rid of the global 'config'.
Make a new container struct to hold the config and offset or figure out
what actually needs to be passed into the functions instead and do that
when the files are created.
