Those warnings aren't anything to be /too/ worried about.  They are 
triggered when a btrfs device size isn't a multiple of the btrfs 
sectorsize (currently 4 KiB on amd64 aka x86_64).  You can manually 
shrink your btrfs devices the fraction to an exact 4 KiB multiple, or 
wait a bit, and a new release of btrfs-tools should have a command to do 
it for you.
