Grow: do not allow size changes with other changes.
A change the reduces the size of an array always happens before any other change. So it can cause data to be lost. By themselves these changes are reversible. But once another change has started, the data would be permanently lost. So recommend data integrity be checked between a size change and any other change. Signed-off-by: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
