If none of your physical disks has ever had Btrfs on it, I'd say it's a bug and should be reported.

If the disk ever once had a Btrfs volume, then it might be a stale Btrfs superblock has been found and whatever is scanning found it's broken and is looking for others, and then times out. But I'd still say this should be rather fast, that it isn't also indicates a bug.

OK if this is easiest for you fine, but I still think there's at least one bug somewhere and you shouldn't have to do this.
