btrfsck doesn't fix anything. It just checks the FS and tells you
that there's something wrong (which it just did). If you're feeling
very very brave, there's the "dangerdonteveruse" branch of the
btrfs-progs tools in cmason's git, which might fix things.
Alternatively, it might fuck up your filesystem so badly there's no
way you can retrieve any remaining data from it. Your choice.

^^^^^ Old, old, old. It's a bit late now, but you should
really keep up with the latest kernels. That should help
minimise this kind of event.

btrfs snapshots wouldn't help here. LVM snapshots would, of course.
There's a restore tool that may allow you to copy off any data
that's not backed up (you *do* have backups, right? for an
experimental filesystem?). See the wiki at [1].
