Ok, so it isn't part of the open devices code that prints errors, my
guess is we're failing to read a good super.
Could you please mkfs.btrfs /dev/xxx, sync, then btrfsck /dev/xxx, I want
to make sure things are really getting written.
Here's a patch that makes sure we have a good bdev after scanning,
hopefully it will let us debug things without your box going boom.

Hello Chris,
I patched the kernel, recompiled and installed, but I don't see the
message in the kernel log. I forgot to mention before, that
max_hw_sectors_kb and thus max_sectors_kb is 4096.
ok, more below.

At this point, your box is broken. You have to reboot before anything
new is valid (sorry). Could you please:
Set max_sectors_kb to 4096
mkfs.btrfs /dev/xxx
sync
echo 3> /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
btrfsck /dev/xxx
Don't try and mount, clearly my patch isn't saving us.

Hello Chris,
