I'v been told this is missing relevant details.
The original kernel version was 3.2.0-something (standard Ubuntu 12.04 LTS).
I've since upgraded to 3.7 but this has made no difference.
Right now I don't have the dmesg, I'll post it later.

Currently I've been able to mount the partition with btrfs-restore and 
am trying to rsync it on another ext4 volume.
