These are definitely corruptions, and they probably came from the crash.
Can you tell me more about the crash? (Power failure, what is the
storage underneath etc, what are the write cache settings).  We don't
expect these kinds corruptions to happen.

Yan Zheng is making a lot of progress on btrfsck, but I don't think
you'll want to be one of the first testers there.  I can definitely help
copy things off if you're having trouble accessing the FS.
