It seems overly harsh to fail a resize of a btrfs file system to the
same size when a shrink or grow would succeed. User app GParted trips
over this error. Allow it by bypassing the shrink or grow operation.

v2: Fix FS shrink prevention error spotted by Chris Samuel
Example failed resize:
# strace -e trace=ioctl btrfs filesystem resize max /mnt/0
Resize '/mnt/0' of 'max'
ioctl(3, 0x50009403, 0xbfa5029c) = -1 EINVAL (Invalid argument)
ERROR: unable to resize '/mnt/0' - Invalid argument
# echo $?
30
# dmesg | tail -1
[426094.235018] new size for /dev/loop1 is 1073741824
