It's a function:

,----[ C-h f temp-buffer-resize-mode RET ]
| temp-buffer-resize-mode is an interactive compiled Lisp function in 
`help.el'.
| (temp-buffer-resize-mode &optional arg)
|
| Toggle the mode which makes windows smaller for temporary buffers.
| With prefix argument arg, turn the resizing of windows displaying 
temporary
| buffers on if arg is positive or off otherwise.
| This makes the window the right height for its contents, but never
| more than `temp-buffer-max-height' nor less than `window-min-height'.
| This applies to `help', `apropos' and `completion' buffers, and some 
others.
