So indeed log tree is involved.

For that purpose, we have btrfs-image, which will only dump the
metadata, which is way smaller than the full disk, and can be further
compressed using -c9 option. (And you can compress it furthermore).

That btrfs-image dump even contains log tree, which is exactly what we
need to fix the hang.
