Could btrfs/069 reproduce the panic? It also races scrub and replace,
but with fsstress running in background, raid5/6 profiles are part of
the default test configs.

Also, is there a known fix available in Linus tree or btrfs tree? If
not, I'd push this new test after there's a known fix (if it's worth a
new test).

Thanks,
Eryu
