Found it: it went away with Josef's recent patch on Nov 6:
"Btrfs: make sure we wait on logged extents when fsycning two subvols"
(http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.comp.file-systems.btrfs/40005)

..which I have applied. boohoo.

That patch also adds another call to btrfs_wait_marked_extents(), which should
then probably also have its return value handled?

thanks,
Holger
