Try booting with bootflags=ro,recovery in grub (with the latest
possible kernel), or mounting with -o recovery from the livecd
(likewise). If it works, then you're done, you should be able to boot
normally after a clean umount and shutdown. If it doesn't, post dmesg
from the attempt.

Terminology note: btrfs-restore doesn't "mount" anything, it just
copies files directly from a device.
