When resizing past the point where the reserve inode has reserved space for the block group descriptors to expand, and resize2fs (in an offline resize) needs to move the allocation bitmaps and/or inode table around, it's possible for resize2fs to allocate over the MMP block, which would be bad. Prevent this from happening by reserving the MMP block as a file system metadata block (which it is) in resize2fs's accounting.
