Meanwhile I have written "btrfs_list" :

root@fex:~# btrfs_list -h
usage: btrfs_list [-b] [-w] [SUBVOLUME...]
usage: btrfs_list [-b] [-w] [/dev/]DEVICE
options: -b  brief output
         -w  show only writable subvolumes
see also: btrfs subvolume show SUBVOLUME

root@fex:~# btrfs_list -v sde1
# mount -o ro /dev/sde1 /mnt/tmp/sde1
# btrfs subvolume list -u /mnt/tmp/sde1
ACCESS-MODE SUBVOLUME <- SNAPSHOT-PARENT
