Aha, just s/xfs_update_secondary_supers/xfs_update_secondary_sbs/ in
Eric's online label patch, and drop the one where he adds
xfs_update_secondary_supers.

Yes. It's likely we only want to update a single secondary sb, and
updating all of them is overkill, so maybe it's fine just to open code
this one use? Seeing as I don't think we'd ordinarily be updating only
a single secondary sb.

Online fsck checks both sb_fname and sb_uuid and complains if the
secondaries are out of date. xfs_repair doesn't check at all.

Ok, I had wondered myself if we should unconditionally rewrite the
secondary sbs, because why would we care what the previous contents
were?
