May I add my report? I just upgraded Ubuntu from 19.04 -> 19.10 so 
kernel went from 5.0 -> 5.3 (but I was using 4.15 too).

Booting 5.3 leaves me in initramfs as I have /boot on @boot and / on /@

In initramfs I can try to mount but get something like
btrfs critical corrupt leaf invalid inode generation open_ctree failed

Booting old kernel works just as before, no errors.

How do I get the creation time?

How to find the offending dir/file from the command line manually?
