I just created https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Btrfs-zero-log
and added the info about this failure of btrfs-zero-log as well as the patch from Chris. Whenever it's in a new version of btrfs-zero-log, I or someone else can update that wiki page to tell people to just update to a newer version to get around this "Couldn't setup log root tree" problem. However, re-reading your error message you got a different error, so the patch isn't likely to work for you read block failed check_tree_block is a warhing Your actual error is if (!extent_buffer_uptodate(root->node)) { fprintf(stderr, "Couldn't read tree root\n"); return -EIO; } This looks more serious, and I'm not sure if btrfs-zero-log can help with that. I'll let someone else answer.
