Well, if nothing else works, you can still make a backup, diff it with an
older backup to possible recover the corrupted files or at least older
versions of it and redo the filesystem. After verify that the hardware
works okay :)

As said, these errors are called uncorrectable for a reason. When they
happen on file data it should be possible to delete the offending file,
but then AFAIK BTRFS also reports on which file they happen.
