On my local machine, I'm reproducing this with what Fedora calls
3.7.0-0.rc0.git2.4.fc19.x86_64 (note I found an unrelated but very
serious bug in this kernel:
http://marc.info/?l=linux-kernel&m=134973394826408&w=2 )

In Fedora we apply several patches on top, but none of them
appear as if they would affect btrfs or sync/invalidate paths:
