If any of the operations in the previous "for" loop causes "error" to be set
and the loop to be exited, the call to xfs_update_secondary_sbs() would
overwrite this error value. In the worst case it might set error to 0 and
hence return a success status to the caller when the growfs operation
had actually failed.
