The superblock is the first thing that is checked and repaired, so if it is being "repaired" to reduce the size of the volume then all the other errors are just a result of that. e.g. the grow could be leaving stale secndary superblocks around and repair is seeing a primary/secondary mismatch and restoring the secondary which has the size parameter prior to the grow.... Also, the output of 'cat /proc/partitions' would be interesting from before the grow, after the grow (when everything is working), and again after the xfs_repair when everything goes bad....
