Oooooo...

There could be a problem in that device numbers are not necessarily fixed.

Looking at openSuse that has a set of BTRFS subvols. /Home is a subvol and its
minor device number can (and does) change on reboot.

You can see this by creating a testfile, "stat" it to get the device number,
check that that device number appears in the balooshow results. Then reboot and
stat the file again.

I get, for example:

    $ stat testfile.txt
      File: testfile.txt
      Size: 14              Blocks: 8          IO Block: 4096   regular file
    Device: 38h/56d Inode: 5089        Links: 1
    ...

followed by, after a reboot:

    $ stat testfile.txt
      File: testfile.txt
      Size: 14              Blocks: 8          IO Block: 4096   regular file
    Device: 35h/53d Inode: 5089        Links: 1
    ...

I think baloo sees the change and reindexes the files...

I've asked on Bug 402154 "Baloo reindexes everything after every reboot" to do
this test and see if they see the device number changing....

It maybe that there's also a connection to Bug 401863
