A few thoughts:

If this goes in, it should be documented in
Documentation/fs/ext4.txt, as well.

I suppose it might be nice, but when do you think this
might be needed in real life?

Also: sysfs is technically supposed to be one value per
file, and (I think) just a number, no text.  At least,
that's what every other ext4 device sysfs file has today,
so this should follow that precedent.

And as far as I can tell, "groups total" is the total
uninit groups at mount time, not total  in the filesystem,
so this would change on a remount? I think that's unexpected,
and not very useful.

Simply printing the remaining uninitialized block group
count might be enough, i.e.:

$ cat /sys/fs/ext4/vda/lazyinit_remaining
42
