We can't understand each other. I guess I missed something...

And it shouldn't. It returns the result of groups_search() if this
grp is supplementary or "not found".

But it does??? see below...

No, I meant to move the restrict_bitmap check to groups_search(), see the patch
above.

Why? -1 means that the grp is supplementary and restricted.

Why? I don't think so. audit_filter_rules() uses the result of groups_search()
as a boolean.

No, I didn't remove the check, this code relies on the change in
groups_search(). Note the "xxx > 0" check.

I must have missed something :/
