Ok good things look ok.
run xfs_db -x to put it into expert mode
use the write cmd to modify your sb 0 values back to what they were.

That should get the file system back into a state xfs_repair can
understand.
I would run xfs_repair -n and see what is says about things.
The old last AG might have been resized out to a full AG if it was a
partial AG previously
xfs_epair should be able to fix that up, but again run it with -n
first to see what is will do.

Once things are back to normal update your xfs kernel module and
re-run the grow cmd
and you should be in good shape.
