In fact, group's exclusive must be less or equal  than it's referenced  value, if you find it is not true in official
progs, you can report it!

Here should be expected, because, i don't cast qgroup's value to s64 while
it is stored as u64. I will fix this problem when i rebase my patch-set.

In fact, i doubt whether qgroup's exclusive helps, because it always can not
work very well, it requires user to track the value especially snapshoting.

Thanks,
Wang
