Well if Hugo´s solution with unmounting the FS, btrfs dev scan does not 
work, I see this my suggestion to reboot as making sense.

I do not have to add more to my analysis.

If any BTRFS developer or expert knows another solution in during runtime of 
the system, feel free :)

So or so I think a kernel bug is involved here. And I think I remember 
having seen something like this during a balance attempt myself already, but 
it was just a test BTRFS and I was not sure of it.
