I'm not a Btrfs developer, so not sure if those btrfs check errors matter much
or not.

Some general advice though, maybe you could try command-line tools to resize?

I always do:

  - btrfs fi resize to a lower size than planned, to leave some safety
    headroom (10-100 GB) and not get bitten by any possible GB vs GiB
    confusion;

  - resize the partition with GNU fdisk, or the volume with lvresize;

  - btrfs fi resize again, this time to "max", to fill the exact resulting size
    of the partition.
