I was able to reproduce this; the good new is that I reproduced this issue with an old kernel (v4.1.5); a more recent kernel (v4.2.1) doesn't show the problem.
I suspect that the commit below solved this issue:
commit 4fde46f0cc71c7aba299ee6dfb4f017fb97b6e70

Btrfs: free the stale device
When btrfs on a device is overwritten with a new btrfs (mkfs),
the old btrfs instance in the kernel becomes stale. So with this
patch, if kernel finds device is overwritten then delete the stale
fsid/uuid.
To trigger the problem you have to re-register two different devices (== different dev_uuid) with the same device name and the same fs_uuid (without rebooting).
Below how I reproduced this issue:
# creating the filesystem
truncate -s 20G img0
truncate -s 20G img1
truncate -s 20G img2
truncate -s 20G img3
losetup /dev/loop0 img0
losetup /dev/loop1 img1
losetup /dev/loop2 img2
losetup /dev/loop3 img3
mkfs.btrfs -draid6 -mraid6 /dev/loop[0-3]
# mount and use the filesystem
mount /dev/loop1 /mnt/test
[...]
umount /mnt/test
# remove the img2, rotate the devices
losetup -d /dev/loop0
losetup -d /dev/loop1
losetup -d /dev/loop2
losetup -d /dev/loop3
losetup /dev/loop1 img0
losetup /dev/loop2 img1
losetup /dev/loop3 img3
#NOTE /dev/loop0 is unassigned
mount -o degraded /dev/loop1 /mnt/test
btrfs fi usage /mnt/test
