Currently there seems to be no way to ensure it is instantly available, or to 
be precise, the only way to get that is to unmount the FS and mount it again. 
Not sync, not "btrfs fi sync" ensure that all cleanup is complete before they 
return. Only umount does, and it can take a very long time if you have deleted 
a large (differing a lot) subvolume just before that.
