Solved (something like reverse engineering).

I re-create the (permanent) entry /dev/btrfs-control using the actual  
contents of "/sys/class/misc/btrfs-control/dev", and btrfs is happy (and  
me too).

Works now on two of my machines for the next long time test ...

------------------

I'll watch who changes the data ... some part of some program must have  
defined 234 as minor ID.

Viele Gruesse!
