Can I downgrade the kernel from 3.17.1 to latest 3.10 if I have a

I went back from 3.17.0 to 3.16.3 when 3.17 acted flaky, and since then
gone up to 3.16.5 with nice results. 3.17.2 is, I think, expected to
contain the actual fixes
Did you upgrade straight from 3.10 to 3.17?
Going all the way back to 3.10 is probably a bad thing. There's been a
lot of work since then. I'd build a new 3.16.5 and switch to that.
DONT go back further, and DONT run btrfsck until the mainline and tools
that fix the "read-only snapshot bug" are in your system. I think that's
going to be 3.17.2 and the 3.17 btrfs tools. If you use older tools you
may end up having to recreate the partition completely.
