"xfsprogs: ensure growfs rejects non-existent mount point"

What is a "non-existent mount point?"  If it doesn't exist,
how can it be a mount point?  :)  Maybe:

xfs_growfs: ensure target path is an active xfs mountpoint

..that the target path must be an active xfs mountpoint.

(the filesystem /does/ have to be mounted to be grown, it's
just that growfs found it via paths which are not the mountpoint,
which is not what the manpage says it requires)

... to proceed if the target path resides anywhere on a mounted
xfs filesystem.  This could lead to unexpected results.

(of course it was mounted, the problem was that it was
not the mountpoint itself)

Unless the target path is an active xfs mountpoint, reject it.

(we needed this with or without bind mounts so that's not
really inaccurate...)

Create a new fs table lookup function which matches only active
xfs mount points, not any file residing within those mountpoints.

so we get:

# growfs/xfs_growfs -n foobar
Path resolution failed for xfs_growfs: foobar

That's a little odd...

What I had suggested was to use strerror to say /why/ it failed:

+	if (!realpath(argv[optind], rpath)) {
+		fprintf(stderr, _("%s: path resolution failed for %s: %s\n"),
+			progname, argv[optind], strerror(errno));
+		return 1;
+	}

so:

# xfs_growfs -n foobar
xfs_growfs: path resolution failed for foobar: No such file or directory

Sorry for being the BMFH.
